Your comments will be very helpful. Thanks in advance!
Most information about tile generation/seeding has already been said by the others. But what is also important is the way you are generating these tiles and what seeding tool you are using? - Do you make use of multicores? - How do you define what you are seeding? A BBOX has a pretty bad hit/miss ration for Japan. - Do you seed tile after tile, from top to bottom or some more advanced strategy? I have written the seeding tool for MapProxy[0] and there are a lot of parts where you can optimize the seeding process, in contrast to naive top to bottom tile generation.
