I have a question for you zope administrators out there : What are your experiences whith zope running on Windows NT/2K? No matter what I try , zope will run significant faster on a Unixlike system (with the same hardware), especially when working alot with the ZCatalog.
While experimenting we've seen difference in startup speeds for CMF using a lot of PageTemplates (Plone) on Duron + W2K compared to Celeron +W2K. IMHO it is caused by the way Python is compiled in (more effective for Intel platform).
Do you guys have any proposals how to make zope run faster on windows? My own experience is also that zope runs faster with the "start.bat" way instead as a Windows NT Service. Strange, because I tried several numbers of threads with both ways with the same startup parameters.
No difference in service / standalone so far. No precise measurements were made. Just overall impression (10 vs 90 seconds for startup ;) There is possiblity that it was hardware playing the game. m. -- Myroslav Opyr zope.net.ua <http://zope.net.ua/> ° Ukrainian Zope Hosting e-mail: myroslav@zope.net.ua <mailto:myroslav@zope.net.ua>
