Average size of those binaries? I am wondering if it isn't the binaries.
These are (in no particular order - blessed be the NT DIR command) the ones that cross the 100 KB barrier: 201.361 txstuff.zip 320.825 Aexcel.zip 233.547 aexcel32.zip 129.257 Temail2.zip 191.985 Floader.zip 451.509 fputrial.exe 382.625 mapper.zip 204.680 mapper44.zip 196.764 ObjPatch.zip 345.712 setup.exe 684.045 setup.exe I have "about" 135 files in the database, with an (arithmetic) average size of 32 KB.
I have 4 Zservers on an old p133 with 128MB ram, on an old scsi drive; each takes ~45 seconds to load. I have no binaries in them.
Well, the drive the database (together with Zope itself) resides on is reasonably old, too (IBM DCAS, 5200 rpm), but still sufficiently performant (and it's a FAT16 partition, not NTFS)
