+== 3.1 Run server ==
+You are now ready to run the server. Execute the following command:
+{{{
+$ ./manage.py runserver
+}}}
+
+If everything went as it should, you should get output like:
+{{{
+0 errors found
+Django version 1.3, using settings 'persisted.settings'
+Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
+Quit the server with CONTROL-C.
+}}}
+
+You can now visit the heatmap at http://127.0.0.1:8000/website/
+
+== 3.2 Realtime rendering ==
+If you have data in the tables described in the previous chapter, you might get lines like these in your terminal:
+{{{
+[02/May/2011 09:50:16] "GET /gheat/classic/16/33584,21598.png HTTP/1.1" 200 334
+}}}
+This means heatmap images are being requested and served. If a tile hasn't been rendered before, it will be now. Note that rendertime will increase with larger datasets.
+
+== 3.3 Prerendering ==
+If realtime rendering takes too much time, you can choose to prerender the images.
+
+You can prerender a heatmap with the following command:
+{{{
+$ ./manage.py gen_tiles
+}}}
+This will prerender a heatmap with the default boundingbox specified in gheat/management/commands/gen_tiles.py
+To use a different boundingbox or colorscheme, you can customize the command:
+{{{
+# -s = start of the boundingbox, SW corner
+# -e = end of the boundingbox, NE corner
+# -c = colorscheme located in django_gheat/gheat/etc/color-schemes/
+# -b = view used for creating tiles, default should be fine
+
+$ ./manage.py gen_tiles -s 60,6 -e 66,8 -c firetrans -b serve_tile
+}}}
+Make sure you get your boundingbox right. If you have a box too small, there is a risk some images will be rendered realtime when requested. If you have a box too large, the process will take longer than necessary.
