Fast disks are essential. Using NVME disks is recommended.
Even on a well configured machine the import of a full planet takes
-around 2 days. On traditional spinning disks, 7-8 days are more realistic.
+around 2 days. When using traditional SSDs, 4-5 days are more realistic.
## Tuning the PostgreSQL database
and even reduce `autovacuum_work_mem` further. This will reduce the amount
of memory that autovacuum takes away from the import process.
-For the initial import, you should also set:
-
- fsync = off
- full_page_writes = off
-
-Don't forget to re-enable them after the initial import or you risk database
-corruption.
