Hi all,

Really pleased to announce a new version of Tilemaker on github:

https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker

Tilemaker is a command-line application that makes vector tiles in one hit, directly from an .osm.pbf file. There is no database and no stack. Everything is kept in RAM so it's best suited for country-size extracts.

v1.4 is many times faster than previous versions thanks to Shunsuke Shimizu's great work on making tile output multithreaded.

To quantify this, it is 3x as fast on my 4 core system and uses about the same RAM. It takes about 3 minutes for a 400MB PBF and a very simple conversion, with 4GB of RAM usage. Larger extracts or more complex vector tiles will take longer and more RAM.

The real advantage of tilemaker with small areas is that you can run it and upload the tiles to virtual any web host and the ops side is easy.
