First, you'll need a load balancer. Here is a lightweight one that sounds like a good match for Zope, although I haven't tried it:
It actually tries to match clients with servers, which should lead to more ZODB cache hits, therefore lower memory consumption.
Interesting. One complication with that scheme is that ther is no convenient place to put caching. If it goes between Pen and Zope, you need many instances of your cache. If it goes between Pen and the clients, Pen's client-clustering is defeated because it sees only one client. Ive been using squid with ICP to match *datasets* to servers. http://www.zope.org/Members/htrd/icp/intro Toby Dickenson tdickenson@geminidataloggers.com
