I'm surprised I get out of memory errors as it's only a 176MB file.

osm2pgqsl allocates memory in blocks of 8k nodes, each node takes 8 bytes of memory. The whole block is allocated if you have even one node in that block. This means that if your nodes are distributed thinly but evenly across the ID range, each single node will trigger the allocation of 64k of memory, up to a maximum of (currently) around 9 GB.

There doesn't seem to be a facility in osmosis for removing duplicates.

You might be able to work around this by converting your files to diffs (replace <osm> by <osmChange><create> and similar for the closing tag), and then having Osmosis read, merge, and simplify them (--rxc --rxc --rxc --mc --mc --simc --wxc), and manually change the result back to an OSM file.

Bye
Frederik
