So we are not so far from real-time after all, taking my exemple : if ~0.5s is acceptable for a full screen user view and experience so in a multi-thread environnent, it means that we "just" need one CPU-core by tile to render. (well, at list, for one user ;-( ) But octo-core CPU are on their way...

I just can't understand the advantage into putting code in a apache module, instead of "just" doing some rewrite to a python/cgi wrapper that would generate the tiles... Well, after all, why not, for a few % boost ? -- Sylvain Letuffe [EMAIL PROTECTED] qui suis-je : http://slyserv.dyndns.org _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
