Boundaries are needed for correct assigning of cities and addresses to country. It is actually don't needed, if routing to address is not required. The use of continent boundary extracts (from cloudmate) is needed, because country extract has broken boundaries - the cut area sometimes splits them.
For large memory requirements - I'm currently working on more functionality (itinerary, click routing etc.). In parallel I think about optimizing of map and converting process. I need small map, so optimizing is not my current priority. But it will be next step, as I do what I want to do :). Please be patient (I have job and family).
