Re: [mkgmap-dev] Memory Consumption on Index Creation

Hi Felix

However could you change mkgmap to delete broken mdr files if it crashes on low memory?? That would be a real troublesaver!!!!

I've implemented this idea on the index-memory branch. The mdr file is not written unless the process completes successfully, so you should never see a broken file due to an out of memory or any other fatal error. On the other hand if there is an existing mdr file it will not be touched, so make sure you remove any pre-existing file. Cheers ..Steve
