No, it's worse: The sea generator adds one sea polygon and one land polygon,
both share 
all (!) points that are one the coast line. All these points are later
preserved in the 
removeShortArcsByMergingNodes() method. So, the coast line is saved very
detailed for
each resolution.
I am pretty sure this is not intended ?
