I did a howto the other day on what to do to render smaller areas, as a test run I used the South American data file on Geofabrik in a virtual machine and only 6G was used in total (world boundaries + osm data etc). http://wiki.sharedmap.org/wiki/Rendering_At_Home The trick with small machines is to cache the tiles else where. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
