Description (last modified by Jukka Rahkonen)

I am using the commandline gdal_translate -of png -co "ZLEVEL=1" [filename].vrt [filename].png to translate two rasters from VRT to PNG (also converting to tiled tiff, but that works fine).

Given two vrt "rasters" with sizes as follows:

59392,201728 (wide raster) 191488,46080 (tall raster)

performance degrades to about 20bytes/sec on the wide raster when I hit about 30% processing (still at 30% + 1 dot 3 hours later). On the other hand, performance does not noticeably degrade when processing the tall raster, and the entire translation takes about 2-3 minutes.

both vrts are built from 1024x1024 uncompressed TIFF tiles generated using otherwise the same methods/settings/projection/coordinate system/etc.
