From Planet File to Vector Tiles: Benchmarking My OpenStreetMap Processing Pipeline
TL;DR: I benchmarked my OpenStreetMap processing pipeline (Osmosis → Osmium → Tilemaker) across four machines. Updating the planet takes ~16–21 minutes, while generating worldwide vector tiles (z14) takes between 1h45 and 6h18 depending on hardware and parameters. With tuned Tilemaker parameters and sufficient RAM I was able to reduce tile generation to ~1h45. The Full…
