Hi Henning, well, I don't know how well the number of nodes in a tile correlates with the size of the img file, but it seems to work for most users. My understanding is that this should work as well for a style which only processes a few details, only the ratio between number of nodes and tile size will be different, in other words, you have to find out how much higher the max-nodes value can be.

Hi Gerd, splitter is able to write a density file, which stores the density of OSM-nodes in the specific area. Afterwards the file is splitted and processed by mkgmap. mkgmap will use only the objects, which are addressed in style-file.
Example: In a rectangle of 100x100m are 5 nodes belonging to a highway and 10 nodes belonging to POI, and polygones and style-file only contains highways, mkgmap writes only 5 nodes (and one line) to img-file.
For an more effictive splitting of tiles I would imagine, that a density-file created by mkgmap based on the written data will be much better then the file written by splitter.
