[OSRM-talk] One thread not solving when number of observations is large

2017-07-14 Thread Sayer, Bryan
Hi, We are using the Stata wrapper of osrm to find routes for millions of observations. I have finally deduced that one thread does not work when the number of observations is large enough. 5 million is large enough; 1 million is not. The return code is 3=Something else is wrong for exactly 25

Just as a point of reference, you mention that avoiding swapping and just using RAM will be much faster. If the swap space is an SSD drive, how much does using only RAM speed up contract? That is, what is the difference between using say a 7200 rpm SATA drive versus an SSD drive make? _

I have been wondering the same thing. One of the benefits of OSRM is that it can be used in a secure environment without web access. This makes it wonderful for research purposes. However, we need a way to document what we do. This includes being able to cite the version of the software and also

[OSRM-talk] calculation of jump distances

2018-01-16 Thread Sayer, Bryan
Hi, We are calculating distances between an U.S. census tract centroid and hospitals. A tract averages about 4,000 people, but can vary in area. Obviously, the centroid is likely to not be on a street, and thus a jump distance has to be calculated to get to a street. Our question is what is

We use the Stata implementation OSRMTIME from Stephan Huber at Regensburg University which can split the data across threads (we have 2 CPUS with four cores each, and two threads per core). So 16 threads on a 3.5 Ghz Xeon and 64 GB of RAM, and if the network traffic is low (like on holidays) I

My experience is probably with a slightly older version of OSRM, but I found that you have to have actual physical RAM (like 64G) to do the map extract. Creating a big swap space isn't sufficient. Some people advise doing the extract on an AWS cloud computer. Bryan Sayer _

Re: [OSRM-talk] Help - Off-line Routing

2019-05-17 Thread Sayer, Bryan
I'm not sure what your use case is. We use the Stata implementation from S.Huber and C. Rust to do static routing. That is, we have a static list of starting points and ending points that we route in batch. You do have to build your routing maps first, and this takes a lot of memory, although
