Hello!

I've set up mapnik tile generation for the Romanian maps (level 17, bbox 19.5,43.2,30,48.6 /4326) on 6 PCs (roughly 2GHz Dual each) running Windows XP. The empty tiles outside the relevant / drawn area are quite fast, as expected, but as soon as it gets into the relevant areas, the empty tiles slow down to a rather suspicious 15-20s/tile. Is that normal? Would tile generation work better on Linux? (our Ubuntu server is about finished with level 16, we ran into the 50Million inodes limitation :D - so comparatively it worked faster).

I've seen the suggestions for using meta tiles (Artem) and mod_tile. The latter is out of the question, since level 17 is optional for us anyway, so we are not going to set up an Apache server just for that. Artem's suggestion might work, but it seems like a lot of hassle.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Valentin Raduti
