London and Paris Marathon are quite heavy (25MB)

[ThomasParistech]

When the map is really large and centered on a dense city (like Paris or London Marathon), we could avoid drawing each tiny street, to lighten the filesize.

What do you think @JulesL2 ?

[JulesL2]

Indeed, I will check the options to see how we can detect it is a large city (probably by doing a count request in overpass) and how we can fix it :)

@ThomasParistech Do you speak of the download data size ? or only the vectorized image size ?

If it is the vectorized image size then I can also investigate a filtering of points/ a resampling when drawing roads.

I meant the vectorized image size
When I open it on my laptop, the viewer struggles a bit ^^

[ThomasParistech]

But finding a way to reduce the download size would also be useful !

[JulesL2]

I have included both.

One thing : To chose the priority level to download I use a function (such as an auto mode), it would be cool to be able to override the auto value with a user value in the gui if someone really wants a high res pic.
Second thing : The criteria in the auto mode should be tested on a lot of maps, I have tested only 4-5 maps.
Third thing : Seems that the download is still the limiting factor

My laptop is usually pretty fast, but here's what it looks like when zooming in on the A4 pdf, after the road simplification (PR #62)
It seems like there's still too many tiny complex details to render

It seems that a lot of ways are not merged, I will have a look

@ThomasParistech Which viewer are you using ?
