Eventually I updated Java and tried the latest version of mkgmap 3847 (and also splitter 580).
The extracts were retrieved from Geofabrik on Saturday 18.
Germany: 2.93 GB
plus additional countries: 5.62 GB (incl. Germany) which were combined to a 7.57 GB o5m file.
splitter: Germany 14 minutes - Central Europe 20 minutes
mkgmap: Germany 30 minutes - Central Europe 133 minutes
While splitter performed better than O(n) (more like O(sqrt(n))),
mkgmap performed worse than O(n^2).

How is mkgmap expected to behave when input files grow in size? Is a linear inrease in calculation time - i.e. O(n) - expected, or an increase beyond linearity? E.g. when I create a map with routable lines for bicycle, mkgmap takes some 30 minutes for Germany alone (3 GB pbf file resulting in 850 MB img file), but more than 2 hours for Germany and some neighboring countries (7 GB o5m file, resulting 1.4 GB img). Are there many calculations at O(n^2) or beyond in mkgmap, or is this due to other factors, e.g. memory limitation?
Notes:
mkgmap is called by
%JAVA% -Xmx6800M -ea -jar %MKGMAP% ....
on 64bit Win 7;
swapping to disc does not occur.
But I am more interested in a general rule than in some hints for improving the performance in this concrete case. E.g. how I could estimate the duration if I add some further countries...
Thanks for your hints.
