If someone is using Postlatch he's probably doing so with intent. My intention was to give Mike a solution he can work with. I see that the suggestion "try another tool" is not the correct answer to "tool xy does not what it should" and I promise to think about it, next time.

Or to be more accurate, Flash Player is reluctant to tell Potlatch if the connection has failed, so Potlatch is happily sitting there not knowing anything is wrong. The link that Mike posted works pretty quickly for me - only about three seconds or so. So it does sound like it might be a network issue. Best advice is that if it's taking too long, just refresh. cheers Richard (wrt Peter Körner's post, I think I'm going to write Botlatch, a script which will look for any mention of JOSM and reply "Have you tried Potlatch?

Re: [OSM-talk] Potlatch really slow
Thanks, Martin I think I may have found out what the problem is. Like you said, don't blame the potlatch!! On the traces I have problems with, I did multiple traces on the same day and saved them on my Garmin eTrex. The device shows for example, the following two traces 29-JUL-2009 29-JUL-2009 02 However, I only see one file in windows 20090729.gpx This is what I uploaded to the web site and this is what I guess is causing the problem Cheers Mike 2009/8/4 Martin Koppenhoefer > 2009/8/4 Mike Ryan : > > I originally tried to edit these in Germany when I stayed at a friend's > > house in Munich - I'm back home in the UK now and it's exactly the same. > > > > I've uploaded all my traces from my holiday now and see similar problems > > with all of the larger ones.

I also experienced the same issue when mapping in Italy. When I was in Germany, it was a completely different potlatch-experience and I was sorry for blaming potlatch in the past ;-). Guess like you that there is some network-problems (are you accessing from italy or from somewhere else?). cheers, Martin ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
Re: [OSM-talk] Potlatch really slow
Looks like it could be a bug or something (or maybe something wrong in the trace). I tried editing it in IE and it does the same thing. I've got some other traces from the same area that I'll upload and see how I get on Cheers Mike 2009/8/4 Mike Ryan > Hi All > > I'm trying to update the map using a GPS trace I took while on holiday in > Udine in Northern Italy > http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?gpx=462905 > > However, the map itself is really slow to show all the existing ways once I > go into edit mode - I have already created a road that was already there > (and then had to delete it), as the existing ways didn't come up, despite > waiting quite a few minutes. > > Is this normal?

[OSM-talk] Potlatch really slow
Hi All I'm trying to update the map using a GPS trace I took while on holiday in Udine in Northern Italy http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?gpx=462905 However, the map itself is really slow to show all the existing ways once I go into edit mode - I have already created a road that was already there (and then had to delete it), as the existing ways didn't come up, despite waiting quite a few minutes. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do to speed this up? Is it because the area I'm doing is not very well mapped, so not cached on the server or something?
