Tiles per Minute - mapnik

Does someone know how many tiles (maximum) the actual mapnik tileserver can deliver per minute?

You mean the main openstreetmap.org tile server? Only JonB knows… :slight_smile:

Thanks - I will ask him directly.

Btw these are the munin graphs, they only tells you that it’s on average 98 pages per second, which is not equal to how much it renders.

Here is JonB’s answer:

But now we are talking static image serving and rendering together.

It’s only about static image serving. The most of the tiles delivered through te cache of the server (12 GByte RAM) so it is very very fast. There is a second part of JonB’s answer with JonB’s ab test:
