The code GWC uses to chop up metatiles into individual tiles is pretty trivial (see [1], createTile() and writeTileToStream() below).
Will that process kill the optimization done by GeoServer, or does the palette survive ? In the current 8 bit PNG case it appears to survive, afaict. -Arne 1: http://geowebcache.org/trac/browser/trunk/geowebcache/src/main/java/org/geowebcache/layer/wms/WMSMetaTile.java#L142 Chris Holmes wrote: > Good to see this deal hatched ;) > > I think it'll be an increasingly popular use case, especially as we > figure out how to get GeoServer rendering tiles on EC2 and other > clusters.
