I've just checked in a new version of the splitter (r84) that requires far less memory and also performs slightly better during the first stage of the split. As an example, it used to take about a 5GB heap to generate areas.list for the whole planet, but now only takes around 300MB(!). An additional advantage is that as the planet grows in size and complexity going forwards, the memory required during the first stage will not increase.
Impressive! Many, many thanks for the effort. I'll test it on weekend. Paul -- Don't take life too seriously; you will never get out of it alive. -- Elbert Hubbard
