[Routing] How to create a routing data from planet.osm

Oh, and there is one more thing:
Don't try to import the complete planet. osm file at once (about 90GB
uncompressed), because you will run out of memory (if you don't run a
super computer).
It's a current limitation of the tool, that it parses the complete XML
first before writing it to the database. This could be improved by
writing to the database once a certain portion has been parsed, but
nobody implemented this yet.
Contributions are always welcome!
