just an idea for a slightly different caching schema that might
bring more speed and less empty tiles to the map display
as far as i remember tiles are caches for a certain time and
then deleted, just based on age.
(correct me if i'm wrong)
the database, webserver, proxy logs should give us:
- times with high database server load
- times with high web/proxy sever load
- request distribution for tiles
idea:
1) find the most requested tiles
2) expire tiles that weren't requested for a certain time
or aren't in the "most wanted" list
3) precreate tiles with a high request rate at times
where database serverload is usually low
4) (3) combined with this idea
http://www.openstreetmap.org/wiki/index.php/REST#Fetch_only_modified_data
(don't know which protocol the tile server uses to communicate to
the database), would make it possible to recrate only those tiles
where the database content has changed
