The things that can be done in order to reduce this are: - Increase the size of the bbox (add a buffer) when rendering a zone, so you fetch more data, so that data creates new collisions that you couldn't see otherwise. - Render bigger areas at once (this saves rendering a buffer that would be discarded) - this is already being done by OSM by using mod_tile and metatiles (groups of 8x8 tiles are rendered). Bigger metatiles would slow the rendering process (due to re-rendering non-changed data), but reduce the occurrences of truncated text linesymbolizers. - Completely prevent linesymbolizers from rendering at the edges of the metatile. This could be achieved either by code, or by rendering first a fake text linesymbolizer all around the bbox of the metatile.
