I am processing the planet file at home. The task is running for three days now.
I have processed more than 1 000 000 000 lines and would like to guess, when it will finish.
I know I can run
$ bunzip2 <plant.osm.bz2 | wc -l
but this will take some hours and will slow down my computer at lot.
I didn't find the question/answer in
osm.wiki/Planet.osm/FAQ
shall I put it there?
Thanks.
