[Tilesathome] API Bottleneck

As I said before, I had recently started rendering all tiles that  
were (judging from their last-modified timestamp) still done with  
Osmarender 4, but stopped that meanwhile.

I also do a nightly rendering of Karlsruhe (into a local slippy map)  
which involves 25 individual level-12 downloads from the API spread  
over 3 hours between 4 o'clock and 7 o'clock (that's between 3 and 6  
on your side of the Channel). I set that up at a time when the t at h  
server was so slow handing out tiles that you practically could not  
use it, and it was very valuable for the Karlsruhe mapping process to  
be able to review one's work the next day. I'll talk to those still  
using the service and see if we can drop that as well.

Bye
Frederik
