Sebastiano,
Some though in my mind:
* –n 20000 : do you really have 2'000 CPU on your WMS server? if not, it
could be worst than better, flooding your WMS server.
* what is the bottleneck? If WMS server is slow you can't make MapCache
faster, you should optimise WMS Server. Multi-domain can help, data
improvement, etc. also.
* Does your WMS is on the same server? same network? Does you network fast
enough?
* metatile can help definitively!
* "we use sqlite as a cache method" => I don't know if sqlite is really
fast or not, but this could be another bottleneck :)
What do you mean exactly by improve seed speed? :) This is matter of
personal point of view some time.
Y.
