The raster map on tile.openstreetmap.org
With the previous CDN all users in a country tended to be routed to the same rendering server. Based on the assumption that users in a country tend to request the same metatiles, this meant that there was a higher chance of a metatile being fresh in the tile store than what we have now, which is weighted round-robin in Europe for high zoom tiles.
Currently we have two lower-end servers in Europe dedicated to zoom 0-12. Higher zooms go to a group of two high capacity and two middle capacity servers which are weighted round-robin.
The rest of the world is not an issue.
