Well, given the size of the tile whose XML description you gave, I'm not that surprised it would be very long, if you have lots of similar ones in your VRT. But after one hour, this is indeed not a good sign that the progress bar stays at 0%. There is a known performance problem when accessing ECW with some access patterns ( http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/3454 ).

Well, I've spent several dozains of hours hacking in the VRT driver over the last few years to be pretty sure that there is everything needed in the VRT generated by gdalbuildvrt to avoid opening each tile when doing windowed request. If you look at the XML extract you mentionned, we have the information on the size and blocking of the tile (SourceProperties element), we know which window of the tile to extract (SrcRect) and we know where it must be located in the VRT mosaic and at which size (DstRect). The last one (DstRect) is sufficient to know if a tile is needed to satisfy a RasterIO request on the VRT. There's no need to known the size in meters of pixels of each tile. > Perhaps in the overview there is the missing information ?
