It's certianly slow and buggy, I'm guessing that is down to demand. 
Overall I'd give it a grade C, could do better.

But, this has got me thinking... (a very dangerous thing)

If this can be done with OSM data, would it be possible to create a 
Transport Tycoon type game along similar lines? Create bus routes and 
run trains, boats, trucks along real streets? The only thing that I 
doubt would be reasonably possible would be new construction. To be 
honest, creating it is completely beyond me, just putting the idea out 
there for someone who has the knowledge and fancies a go.
