As of 27th May 2012, only 142 of these meta tiles have more than 100,000 nodes on them; the front-runner has a whopping 227,000. 105 are in France, 26 in the US, 3 each in Italy and Brazil, and one each in Spain, Japan, Denmark, Austria, and Indonesia.

Of the US tiles, 6 are Kern County, CA and 9 are Cook County, IL, both of which have been the subject of recent discussion here about import of building outlines.

Here are some details about a small piece* of one of these Kern County tiles:

1667KB OSM XML

6036 nodes:
- 5702 nodes that are part of building ways
- 256 trees
- 69 highway nodes

525 ways
- 489 building ways
- 34 highways

That is to say this medium-density (4-5 houses per acre) residential neighborhood would have 78 nodes (1.3% of current) and 36 ways (6.9% of current) without the building outlines and trees. The OSM XML would be 31KB (1.9% of current).
