I have a small Zope/Squishdot installation which runs behind Apache. Zope/Squishdot is the only thing that I use the site for. Almost no one visits it.
Yet my ISP (imeme) says I use an average of 120MB of memory, which it says is twice what I should be using.
Is there some way I can adjust the settings on my Zope installation so that I use less average memory? What are the tradeoffs involved?
Try these options: 1. pack the ZODB regularly (lessens your undo options) 2. minimize the cache regularly (may use slightly more proc time) 3. restart zope regularly (occasional brief (60-120 seconds) downtime as Zope and ZEO restart) 4. keep as many images and files out of the ZODB as possible (some inconvenience) 5. move to a Zope ISP that gives you a realistic memory allocation wrt to the environment they demand you run and does not penalize you for growth.
