Well, people seem to have found the service now, and a significant number of the users have a peculiar interest in downloading almost every tile available. Each one requesting around 900 to 1000 MB which resulted in a disk full situation 😄

If all those heavy users just requested all the tiles then the caching mechanism would spring into action and this wouldn't happen, but it seems like most requests are just a little bit different then others so a new combination has to be created and as a result slowly eating all the diskspace.. Maybe I should create one download containing all the available tiles and redirect everyone who requests more then (say) 70% of the available tiles to that one...

But, it's fun to watch all those requests being made and hope everyone enjoys it too.

Update: The requests are queuing nicely on the server now, so it's possible you'll have to wait a few hours. The 70% rule is now implemented, so things might speedup a little in the coming hours as the largest requests don't need to be rendered anymore.
