Yes I'm aware that my tool is a fork and it's easy to stab yourself in
the eye with it:) I use it in cases when I don't want to wait up to
four hours to see how the area I just mapped turned out under
osmaprenderer. But in a lot of cases I don't use it and do what you
suggest, just wait.

I usually run one of them in loop mode constantly (any more and I find
my machine starts swapping and everything goes wrong).

I agree, if everyone was constantly re-rendering their little bbox and
nothing else the system as a whole would suffer.
