(not sure I really want to ask that question...)I'm not sure you did either ;-)Heh. I suspect a lot of the Potlatch load is caused by people trying to edit large areas at z13. We pretty much have to keep offering z13 because for most of the world, it's the only level at which Yahoo imagery is available. What would be good (we discussed this on IRC) would be if Potlatch - or the Rails site, which is after all the code that actually tells Potlatch "edit this at this zoom, this latitude and this longitude" - could access some metric or other to find out how dense an area is, and then zoom in accordingly if there'll be too much to edit. One for the hack weekend maybe...
Or just default to z17 (until there is some data metric stuff), and let people to zoom out themselves. This would help a lot when editing in places like London with a GPX trace.
