But to be clear, that 40% speed increase is entirely hypothetical. There is 
nothing to suggest that on our current hardware, with our database and usage, 
that an OGC database will be at all faster than our arrangement. Probably much 
slower.

And we can substantially improve upon current OSM performance.
