I dont have enough RAM to extract the northeast.pbf. I was wondering if I can merge states such as MA and CT into one file?
Or is there an alternative for extracting with about 8 GB RAM
if you just want to merge .pbf files, you can use the osmosis tool. there's currently no way to merge osrm files. another option is to spin up a virtual machine somewhere (amazon ec2 or similar) an do the processing there.
I looked at the documentation for osmosis and couldnt find out how to merge for example connecticut.osm.pbf with massachusetts.osm.pbf info map.pbf
For future reference for anyone ending up here through Google the magic spell is
osmosis --rb finland-latest.osm.pbf --rb sweden-latest.osm.pbf --m --wb merged.osm.pbf
