[gps-talkusers] Public User POI file question

Hi All,

I had the US public user POI files loaded without meaning to, and discovered that there are some user POIs in the UK in this file, in Bath for example.

I imagine this can happen if somebody from the US submits a file with most POIs in the US but some in other locations, but it raises two questions:

Firstly, are those files sorted by location as well as by user? There are POIs in Africa and the middle east in the Europe file, and possibly in the US file too, so, second question: is it a serious load on memory to load all the public user POI files, or would it be better to avoid large ones such as the US one, and risk missing interesting POIs?

Best,

Peter
