Aside from this one occurrence, I haven't had any issues with renderd, at least not in regards to queue time.
render_list does seem to have a bug where it ignores the -l, --max-load=LOAD value. Though I need to look at it a bit more to see why its not using the value, I'm passing. Now, I do have one question regarding the shapeindex and shape files (ie. processed_p.shp ). Does running or loading a planet file modify the shapeindex? or should it affect it in anyway? I have the world_boundaries, shorelines, and processed_p deployed as a Debian package. I was presuming these files were fairly static aside from when there's an update that needs to be fetched from the website. Does the shapeindex need to be updated with any frequency? -- Samir On Wed, Sep 29, 2010 at 3:18 AM, Peter Körner <[email protected]> wrote: > Am 29.09.2010 10:10, schrieb Jon Burgess: >> >> I'm not sure what went wrong for you but the main OpenStreetMap server >> regularly runs with the queue full of 1000 requests.
