Hi Daniel,

Ah ok, that's interesting. I will have a look on pgrouting in the future. It 
was always a problem to get the OSM data fast enough to the java routing 
algorithm. I played with several methods to reduce the loaded data, for example 
a-star with landmarks (triangle-equation) to get better heuristics. Other 
methods like contraction hierachies may very complicated if you have dynamic 
metrics.

The best and easiest way should be route directly on the database, like 
pgrouting, or load the whole graph into main memory - but that's not possible 
with the hardware i got for this project.

Greetings, Stefan
