2. You can save your HDD by changing python code to storage only tiles which have data.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jan 18, 2012 at 3:46 AM, Xiaoyuguan <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:guanxiaoyu@gmail.com">guanxiaoyu@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I read tilesize doc v2.1. In the doc, it says tilecache support mbtiles and amazon cloud storage.</div>

Theoretically, a sqlite db could be terabyte-sized (<a href="http://www.sqlite.org/features.html" target="_blank">http://www.sqlite.org/features.html</a>) but keep in mind that the access to the tiles would degraded just after a few gigabytes. I don't know if TileCache follows the same strategy as MapProxy regarding tiles with the same RGB (i.e. lake areas) as it reuses tiles permitting huge disk space savings.</div>
