[talk-pr] Is there a negative consequence of removing POI nodes when a building polygon has been tagged with all relevant information

[Jeff Haack]

Jose, if we host with Tilecache, I think we would need the size of the
geotiffs (~50GB according to other thread) + maybe 10-20 GB more for the
tiles.  The more the better I suppose, but I'm pretty sure Tilecache will
expire and remove tiles as space is needed, or at worst you could set up a
cron job to do it.
