@Craig, thank you for this new information. I will give this a try regarding keeping a changeset open while uploading different parts and will also teach novice mappers about this option. Though, like John Whelan I am still skeptical about the added advantage of bigger changesets. @mmd regarding your question about internet connection. Yes normally a large changeset results in a long wait for things to upload thus, we like to encourage people to upload after every 100 map changes (tracing 1 rectangular building = 5 changes). However, when internet is really slow there is the problem of OSM server response you mention.
