I used the new PBF splitter posted by Francisco.
Compiling was quite fast as I would expect.

It would really be helpful if you can provide a stack trace of the point 
where mkgmap "hangs" and if you can check the memory consumption just to 
be sure that it is not the reason.

You might also post your exact mkgmap parameters to avoid comparing 
apples and pears.
