No, there is no limit for the maximum tiles size for now. Thanks for the hint. What is the limit? I guess it is not a constant, but depends on resolution and other values? Unfortunately the test data is gone and I didn't download it.
If you want to look at the problem, I can try to regenerate the data again.
I am not sure if the problem has to be solved in splitter or in mkgmap. Anyway, please try to reproduce it. I also like to know why mkgmap has problems with tiles that contain only very few nodes. Or is it the gps device that has problems?

I played a little bit with a small testfile how large a tile can be. The attached test file has the maximum size which works for me: <bounds minlat="0.0" minlon="0.0" maxlat="85.0" maxlon="179.98"/> Larger bounds cannot be put into a single tile. For large tiles mkgmap requires much memory problem if the bounds parameter is set. They need to be completely loaded with a high memory consumption. I don't know if there is a hard limit for the tile bounds size. Maybe using some limits in splitter for the maximum latitude and maximum longitude size would remove some problems, e.g. max lat = 20, max long = 20. WanMil
