I don't understand this argument. You argue that filesystems cannot be trusted to do efficiently what they were designed to do, and that we would be better of coding something of our on on top? It won't be long and you'll tell us to return to the design we had two years ago where the PNG data was contained in blobs in the database, on the grounds that the database is more efficient in retrieving these blobs from its one huge storage file than the filesystem can serve tiles ;-) Bye Frederik -- Frederik Ramm ## eMail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ## N49°00'09" E008°23'33" _______________________________________________ Tilesathome mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tilesathome
