Theory

509edo has a sharp tendency in lower harmonics. The 13-limit optimal tuning of this temperament is consistent to the 15-integer-limit, so one might want to keep the octave compression tight.

The equal temperament tempers out 1600000/1594323 (amity comma) in the 5-limit; 2401/2400 and 29360128/29296875 in the 7-limit; and 3025/3024, 5632/5625, 41503/41472, 42592/42525, 151263/151250, 172032/171875, 180224/180075, 322102/321489, 422576/421875, 456533/455625, and 1953125/1948617 in the 11-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for petrtri, the 2.11/5.13/5 subgroup temperament tempering out 2200/2197.
