[Talk-GB] Is there a problem with the standard tile rendering

[Paul Berry]

The time taken for a new tile to appear has always been proportional to the
information density of the tile and zoom level, in my experience. The more
map data, the longer it takes. I've seen city blocks not refresh for a
week, and it can then sometimes come through checkerboarded, whereas rural
areas can often be almost instant.

If you think there's definitely a problem, it might be worth a look on the
Help forum to see if there's a known issue. There's quite a few questions
about tiles, rending, etc: https://help.openstreetmap.org/tags/tiles
