I know this is bad taste to reply to my own message but I found the problem. They were running a proxy called webwasher. The proxy was makings hundreds of thousands of requests to zope and I have no idea why. However it does have WebWasher it the browsers identity string. Is there any way sitewide that I can deny all access to anything that has WebWasher in it?

I am not sure why and every other browser seems to work just fine but when opera 5.02 for windows makes a request on my zope box by trying to submit a form the zope server starts to grow at about 10M/s. In the debug screen I can see ZPublisher.cgi.FieldStorage growing 235000 entries in about 20 seconds. rfc822.Message also grows up to about 235000 entries also. Everything else seems perfectly normal. I have tested opera on linux without problems along with lynx, links, IE, netscape, mozilla etc with no problems.
