[OSM-talk] download osm format large area, high zoom level

[80n]

I've just done some optimisation work on xapi which improves its capacity to
download large bboxes.

In a test I was successfully able to download the whole of the Netherlands
(some 630Mb) in a couple of hours.

You should be able to get at least a z10 sized tile from xapi for even the
most densely mapped parts of the planet.
