Hello WanMil,
I think I understand now what is so special with these admin_level=7 boundaries.
They form a collection of admin_level=8 boundaries. So, after working through
all admin_level=8 boundaries, the admin_level=7 is also done because the
admin_level=8 boundaries have the lies_in tag for them, but LocationHook
doesn't recognize that and continues to work through the admin_level=6
boundaries. For each of the level=6 boundaries we retrieve a large number of
elements from quadTree, and most of them are already fully worked out.
So, if I got this right, we could save a lot of time if we can detect that
admin_level=7 should not be added to remainingLevels which would reduce the
size of the quadtree earlier.
I think we would need a function that determines if a boundary x is completely
overlaped by boundaries with a higher admin_level that have the lies_in for x.
Does that make sense?
Do we have such a function?
