Nice. Couple of questions about how to avoid certain of those traps:
1) How do you control multithreading? It looks like I'm getting access
to some 8 core VMs. How should I configure TileMill/Postgres for best
performance then?
2) How do I know whether reprojection is happening?

At least I have fixed the "query more than you render" problem - that
did indeed improve performance significantly.
