[Routing] Driving directions web map

[Gil Matityahu]

Lambertus,
It works great now, but it is awfully slow.(like 15 seconds per request) Is
this a server issue, or a coding issue? Is there anyway you could run this
map on your own server, or must you link to OSM server?
This is very interesting and something I would like to learn and implement
into my own applications. Does this map have all of the necessary data for a
perfect routing solution? (e.g one way streets)
