I was originally going to use berkeley db for the splitter and if you go back to revision 3 in subversion there is some code that uses the BerkeleyDB java edition. I gave up on it because it seemed like it would take vastly more disk space than the planet file and was much slower than I was expecting or hoping. But I didn't persevere that much before switching to the current open hash map implementation, so I'm not saying that it is unworkable. ..Steve _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev
