I don't understand for whom this option is usable. If I use a "relations" file, then I assume I may not use this option (else relations won't be processed). And also one will be missing stuff like boundaries and maybe some forests My understanding is, that right now the multipolygon-processing is performed by mkgmap even when the map layer shall contains no polygons at all. So this patch might speed up processing for such map layers, e.g. contour lines, hiking routes overlay, POI overlays.
okay, that should be clearer in the description. But hiking routes are often relations, or superrelations. Would it be wise then to use that option? For the other usage cases I see the advantage (but I don't think it will help at all with contour lines, as in how can there be a speedup if no relation data is present in the data anyhow).
