I was fairly close to getting a read-only copy of the planet/API system
going right when they announced a bunch of new servers were installed. The
nice thing about it was that it was using MySQL's spatial index system so
that nodes and ways were returned extremely quickly and cheaply for a given
bounding box.

It might be a good idea to think about setting up a round-robin DNS
read-only-optimized API system for T at H and other rendering setups.

Is the XAPI source in SVN somewhere?
