Getting rid of ZServer is a fine goal but as long as Twisted is much slower (from what I've heard) ZServer has to stay (ZServer is not subject to be deprecated at this time).
ZServer will remain the default for now, and it will not be deprecated unless the community wishes so. I'm guessing the community will want to sooner or later. ;-)
Sure, we all want that (but not for the sake of slower performance) :-)
Twisted is slower, but how much of a difference that makes in real life applications I don't know. The server is in itself not a very big performance eater in Zope. There is of course also the option to use something else that can use WSGI, like for example zope.server, which is much cleaner than ZServer, and probably therefore easier to maintain.
Can I only repeat the "rumors" I've heard from the integration of Twisted in Zope 3. So we won't give up an "efficient" implementation of a core component..that's just what I wanted to say. Having some benchmarks would be nice. And btw. thanks for your work :-) Andreas -- ZOPYX Ltd. & Co.
