Are you mad? Hundreds of OSMers would freeze to death if it weren't for the comfortable warmth generated by their dual quad-core CPUs rendering SVG day-in, day-out! (No, honestly, t...@h has other qualities than just quickly rendering stuff. One, it provides a tile source which is not controlled by the OSM foundation - remember that OSMF very nearly cut off tile serving for all "non core" projects last year [1] in which case t...@h would have been the remaining free source for all these projects. Plus, where else can people happily clutter the map with whatever icons they like without being restrained by earthly cartographic rules?)
