Hi!

I can give you an indication about the distribution of tile requests by zoom
levels on my hiking map server at wanderreitkarte.de.

<=z8    z9      z10     z11     z12     z13     z14     z15     z16     z17     
z18
19%     3%      4%      5%      6%      10%     14%     18%     8%      5%      
3%

This told me that prerendering is worthwhile only up to up to z15.

I also used to do a regional analysis which showed great differences in
access frequency and density. But that distribution depends strongly on the
purpose of your map - in my case it was well-known hiking and holiday
regions. The only general rule is that ocean tiles are almost never
accessed.

If you are concerned about storage space, you have the option to do a lot of
on-demand rendering and regularly delete tiles that are older than n days.
But in my experience, tile storage growth slows down asymptotoically over
time, so I never had to implement that.

bye
