One more question:
I'm still trying to figure out how the OSM tile-rendering server
loads its data - does it look first in 'relations', then to any
related ways and nodes (top-down), or does it load all data
indiscriminately based on geolocation?
Cheers,
Josef.

Mapnik uses PostGIS. OSM data is loaded into PostGIS before it is
rendered. See [1] for more information. The loading can be done with a
tool like osm2pgsql.
