mod_tile is a very different stack to tilecache. apache -> mod_tile -> renderd (part of mod_file package) -> mapnik -> postgis mod_tile groups tile files together in meta files by default. Improving performance and reducing inode wastage. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Servers/yevaud is the primary OSM mapnik tile server. It currently serves upto 1200 tiles/sec. Higher figures could be achieved updating tiles less frequently.
