[OSM-dev] Osmosis woes, something not right - can someone pls. see why?

[Brett Henderson]

I just noticed you said the 27MB file was truncated.  Do you mean it didn't
get closed with an </osm> tag at the end?  Or do you mean it was smaller
than expected?

One other thing that might be worth mentioning.  The osmosis bzip2 support
is very slow.  It might be worth recompressing files as gzip if you wish to
improve performance.  It will take up some more disk space but will run
*much* faster.
