This is very useful information @Andrea and Darell. I've struggled with
this issues for sometime now. Actually my production Geoserver currently
generates tile with user traffic.

Of course we'll look into sponsoring Geoserver development at some stage of
our work to support the work your team is doing which is great.
Thank you guys very much.

Kind regards,
Steve Omondi
