Hello,
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.
Very much so! On a Win2k with Dual P3 1Ghz Zope runs slower than the same install on a Linux box with 1 P133 !!!! (I have tested this on multiple different configurations and every time it comes out the same)
How can that be? If anything, Zope should run just slightly faster on Windows, since VC++ produces more optimized code than GCC 2.x, resulting in higher pystones. Could it be that one of the optional C extensions isn't working on Windows? (I have a Win NT CD and plenty of HD space but no desire to install it. ;-) ) Shane
