[Geocoding] Data importing problems.

[Andrius]

Hello,

I installed nominatim on a new server with "Centos 7 OS", 'Intel(R) 
Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz' 16GB of RAM and now I'm trying to import 
data of Europe (europe-latest.osm.pbf from 
http://download.geofabrik.de/. I use flatnode file for importing and 
import already consumed 250GB of disk and import is still running after 
6 days.

That's last rows of 'setup.log' log file:

   Done 18634676 in 238448 @ 78.149849 per second - Rank 26 ETA

And import porcesses:

Difference between installation which you are providing is that we are 
running Nominatim on 'nginx' instead of 'apache', but I don't think that 
it can harm something.

Now nominatim is already available on our server, but reverse geocoding 
responses in about 5 seconds. My question is:

Is it normal, that import takes so long?

Is it everything okay with my import at this moment?

Will performance be better after import will end?
