I'm not sure there is nothing wrong. My machine takes 8 hours or so to complete
one of those Amsterdam tiles. (Yes, I know I need a faster computer. I'm just
waiting for apple to update the Mac Pro...)

But this one is still at 0% rendering after 15 hours. I'm off to the
office now, but if it's
still at 0% this afternoon i'm going to kill it (and every lowzoom job
I get handed after that).
