Hi WanMil, I don't know if you heard about it. Jochen Topf developed a tool called osmcoastline, which creates sea polygons very quickly from planetextract etc.

Maybe you can integrate something from this? 20 minutes for hole planet sounds very nice.

Hi Henning, I downloaded the source code some time ago and tried to get it run. But there are so many dependencies that I trashed it. If anyone likes to get it run just do it and send me a link to the polygon files created with it. Maybe I can implement a converter to the new precompiled sea files. That should not be too tricky.
