One thing we must not loose track of is the scalability. OSM is growing
relatively slowly at the moment, but if you look at the trend with time then
the average of 5000 line segments added each day right now will be perhaps
50,000 per day by the end of this year alone. I think we can reasonably
expect a minimum ten fold increase in the potential overall use of the
system by the end of this year and very likely to be significantly higher as
new capability comes on line.
