Routing engine

Why not try OSRM (GNU) as the routing engine?

[sanderd17]

OSRM can be used as online routing engine. If you mean using it as offline
engine, well that has some difficulties. OSRM doesn't use the same file
format, so you would have to install maps in two different formats, or
write an interface for it. Also, you would need to have an interface to get
the routes created by OSRM into OsmAnd.

If you want to write those things, I think nobody is stopping you.

Yes I meant offline routing.
Fork OSRM project and rewrite it to fit Osmand.
I will be very difficult to do, because have to deal in both engines.

Then the question is, how much potential engine OSRM quicker built in Osmand Offline?

I wonder to what is trying to port in OSRM Osmand?

Actually Online Routing Engine are very very different from Offline (mobile) Routing Engines. I think we are using OSRM as online provider but we are not going to switch as offline provider for now. Probably it is worth to try but it is out of current priority list.
