I think it would also be useful to have RTL's basic distance example shown in RML and then benchmark that with 10k+ points
Well, I guess it would be quite difficult to come up with exact locations of 10k+ cities (unless somebody already have this data).
The list below is up to date and has 20K+ coordinates that show the location of IP Autonomous Systems (basically major ISPs). http://netgeo.caida.org/aslatlong.txt One query idea that comes to my mind is sorting the AS locations by the number of other AS that are in a 5 Km radius and limiting this to the top 500. That would give a "rough" idea of which locations in the world that have the highest IP connectivity. The name, so that is understandable, should be something like "CEDEL-MRS, LONDON, GB" (example taken from concatenating fields for CEDEL-MRS AS name). This file changes regularly, as the net topology changes, so a second query would be the time it takes, having the current file in memory, to read the updated file and run the updated query (and maybe show the list of locations that have gained the most positions in the rank list)
