Dave, Zope does connection pooling by default. See http://www.zope.org/Members/petrilli/ZSQLFAQ Dave wrote:

I'm a Zope newbie. For the past 2 years I've been writing web apps using Java Servlets that use databases heavily. With Servlets I've used Connection pools to speed up access.

Could someone give me a rough idea of how Zope (say using MySql) handles heavy database integration (i.e. Does Zope create a connection pool, Is there a limit on the number of connection within Zope, etc...) ?

Could you (would you need to) create a pool to cache Db connections?

Also, on a side note. Has anyone looked at the need or possiblity of hooking Zope to Apache JServ to run Servlets from Zope?

Thanks, Dave Bryson
