i'm clueless as well :)
my script also consumed a lot of memory...

may do a correction run over the AND data first ?

can you give an example?

i don't think there's any need for this. it will also be tricky
with the turn restrictions.
if you look at Assen, they also have lots of ways and mapnik
renders that just nice.

see above :) just don't merge ways

like remove the source-url=www.and.com?
