Could you explain in what ways this is the case. Since different types of labels are shown in various maps direct comparison is difficult. You seem to very well avoid overlaps between labels and none the less you are able to put quite a lot of them on the map but non-label feature do not appear to play a role in label placement and there are some strange priorities. Is the algorithm available as open source?
