It depends on the rendering system used. See: http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/dev/2008-April/009736.html Tile on avg served by tile.openstreetmap.org: ~6.5KB. opencyclemap.org: quoted as being at least 4x bigger. generate_tiles.py method will generate many many tiles that will never be viewed, limit to zoom 17 and even with hard-linking identical sea tiles you will run out of disk space. mod_tile can comfortably be used with 500GB of space, as long as disk can keep pace and ancient tiles are expired. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mod_tile Regards Grant _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
