- are you accessing your server from the same machine using the name 'localhost'? If so, do you have a hosts file with that name in it? This has been a problem for windows users before (very long latency if you are offline and have no 'hosts' file).
the hosts file was there, and there was a localhost entry in it. Sorry, I should have been more precise. I only had the latency, accessing the zope server from some clients. Accessing zope from the server machine was fine. So I made a (fake) entry to the hosts file for the client machine, which accesses the server and the latency was gone :) Really strange, release 2.2.4 and before ran perfect without that. But, nevertheless, thanks a lot for the hint. Bories ---- Bories v. dem Bussche clamor@fafalter.de
