The export function on osm.org is a pretty expensive operation on the live database and not the best way to download OSM XML data for most people. If you're looking for a city-sized extract, https://mapzen.com/data/metro-extracts/ https://mapzen.com/data/metro-extracts/ is a good source. They have pre-built ones for commonly requested areas, or you can select your own bounding box.
- rmc 10y agoThere's also the continent/country/state level extracts on Geofabrik: http://download.geofabrik.de/ http://download.geofabrik.de/ Or you can use osmosis to cut a file down to any arbitrary area: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis
