[osmosis-dev] --buffer testing results

[pitney]

Ran the following Osmosis command on Mint 17.2, dual quad core, 16gb ram
to cut planet.osm into continents.


osmosis -v \

--read-pbf-fast .../{var}D.osm.pbf workers=7 \
--tee 6 \
--buffer bufferCapacity=12000 \
--bounding-box left=-27 right=52 top=38 bottom=-37 \
--buffer bufferCapacity=12000 \
--write-pbf .../${var}D.osm.pbf omitmetadata=true granularity=10000
...


"run time" 3 hours.

removing the --buffer(s)

"run time" 3 hours 40 minutes

a 22% penalty!

Your mileage will differ.

Interestingly, if I increase --tee then I get an Osmosis severe error.
