Hi all, currently a Java OutOfMemory exception prevents me from creating a map. I already use option --max-jobs=3 (the machine has 4 physical cores) and -Xmx5G (of 8 GB installed). Beyond OSM data, the map contains DEM and elevation contour lines. From the tiles finished and those with a new timestamp but about 0 bytes length, I can see that mkgmap was rendering tiles 47120005, 47120006, 47120007 at the time of crash. Tile 47120005 is extremely large by physical area - some 6° x 5.5° (see attached file), covering a lot of the south chinese sea, i.e. there are not many actual data in that area. I guess that the problem arises with that tile. I remember some case in the past where a single tile covering such a large area of mainly sea caused mkgmap to take an enormous amount of time for rendering - also here, mkgmap already spent about 1 hour before crashing. So I'd like to ask: is there some possibility for limiting the area of a tile among the splitter options? Kind regards, Bernhard
