I am importing since yesterday - logging on the console says i already through
the nodes and running through importing the ways.

Its a 8 Core, 16GB, 10 Disk Raid0 machine.

I have no experience with TRAPI so i'll see how far i'll get ... While looking
at the import i am playing with my C skills to make a parallel parser for
OSM files.

The problem with OSM DBs will get worse and worse and we need solutions
probably a specialized OSM geo database which anyone with 10-20GB Disc space
and a couple hours (not weeks) time can convert the planet into and make queries at a
decent speed.  Postgresql/Postgis cant scale to what we need IMHO - Currently
OSM grows faster than Moores law.
