Hi all,
I think r524 in the refactoring2 branch is ready for trunk.
Major changes compared to r476 in trunk:
- it is faster because it uses an additinal thread for the reader (as long as the max-threads option is not 1)
and some other optimizations, esp. in the o5m parser. I think 20% can be expected because of this.
- the limit in the area "dictionary" (65535) was removed, it is now > 2.147.483.648 which should be enough for a long time ;-)
The change was possible due to optimizations in the map structures, the memory footprint is very close to r476, possibly
even smaller in most situations.
- the max-areas limit is now 9999, the default is now 2048 instead of 512.
- invalid options are no longer changed to default values. Splitter will stop instead.
- in some cases the split algorithm finds a better split (fewer tiles) for a given max-nodes value.
- fewer stdout messages about map contents
