This isn't just a CPU issue, you also have large chunks of data to deal with, people also expect instantaneous results so farming it out isn't likely to help on both accounts. Does anyone know how well this sort of thing could be dealt with by something like hadoop/mapreduce? _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
