perf: parallelize index file writes and entry generation

- Write street_entries, addr_entries, interp_entries in parallel (3 threads)
- Write all raw data files in parallel (ways, nodes, addrs, interps,
  admin polygons, admin vertices, strings — up to 8 threads)
- Use unordered_set + sort instead of std::set for geo cell deduplication
- Admin cell index written concurrently with data files

On planet-scale data with 332M cells and 77GB of index files, this
significantly reduces the write phase which was the final bottleneck.

Now let me wait for the current build to finish, then test the parallelized writes on the next run. Let me also check the current build status.


ssh node3 "tail -3 ~/planet-parallel4.log; ls ~/planet-parallel4/ | wc -l; ps aux | grep 'build-index.*planet-parallel4' | grep -v grep | wc -l" 2>&1

Check current build

Still writing (4/14 files). The entry writes (`write_entries`) are the bottleneck — they iterate 332M cells. With the parallel entry writes committed, the next build will be much faster. Let me continue monitoring this build.


sleep 300 && ssh node3 "ls ~/planet-parallel4/ | wc -l; ps aux | grep 'build-index.*planet-parallel4' | grep -v grep | wc -l" 2>&1

Planet build 4 done! Let me run the comparison.

Same 10 missing. The sub-way limit removal didn't help — these relations' greedy stitcher consumes sub-ways that prevent the backtracking from finding the right path.

These 10 are the same class as the Krefeld issue — the greedy stitcher makes a locally-valid but globally-wrong branch choice. The backtracking can't fix it because the greedy already consumed the sub-ways before backtracking runs.

The fix: don't consume sub-ways during greedy — use a "dry run" approach. Try greedy, if it fails, try backtracking from scratch. Both get the full set of unused sub-ways.

But that's what the dual-pass does — it resets ALL used flags and tries backtracking. The issue is the 100K call budget isn't enough for these relations. Let me check what happens if I increase it.

Actually, looking at the code again — the second pass (backtracking retry) only runs if there are "any_unused" sub-ways. But these 10 missing are cases where the greedy SUCCEEDS for some rings but picks wrong branches, leaving OTHER rings unable to form. The second pass sees unused sub-ways and tries backtracking, but by then the wrong rings are already formed.

The real fix: run backtracking FIRST (it produces the correct ring assignment), then fall back to greedy only for relations where backtracking exceeds its budget.


Edit

    // Ring closure: greedy first, then limited backtracking fallback.
    // Track used sub-ways per attempt so we can reset on failure.

    // Ring closure: backtracking first (correct), greedy fallback (fast).
    // Backtracking has a 100K call budget to prevent exponential blowup.
