[OSM-dev] Importing planet file with osmosis into PostgreSQL

[Frank Bielig]

Many thanks for fast and valuable responses. One more open question I have.

Currently I need about four days for importing the whole planet file. Is 
that a normal computing time? The bottleneck seems to be the database 
(PostgreSQL). Are there any hints for the database configuration? For 
conversion I use  a quadcore machine with 8GB RAM. Data files are 
located on an own hard drive.
