https://en.osm.town/@jez@mapstodon.space/111068090969090586 Jez asks if PMTiles could be updateable. Here's my view:
* Separate tiles or #renderd metatiles (8x8): wastes a lot of space because of inode usage and internal fragmentation, but it's updateable by #rsync.
* #MBTiles: Saves space, updates possible by reimplementing rsync for SQL, leads to internal fragmentation, which can be removed via vacuum, but requires double the space.
* #PMTiles: Saves all space, but not updateable rsync-like, you have to push all data again.
