In case you wonder how much time / resources it takes to generate vector tiles, I'm running benchmarks with Tilemaker here for https://cartes.app

Also worth checking out https://github.com/onthegomap/planetiler, which maybe a bit less mature, but is much faster than Tilemaker.

Is it ? The benchmark section says 42 m for a 128 Gb machine with 64 CPU.

I am sorry but what is "300 Go RAM" 300 Go? I only know GB/GiB.

It's basically French for GB (Go = Gigaoctet)

OP is probably French or his native tongue is French. Byte is “Octet” in French and typically you’ll see Go = Gigaoctet which is the same as GB.

Also more technically correct as byte never "officially" meant 8 bits, but octet is unambiguous.
