This may sound silly, but do you think it would be feasably to get some more speed out of Zope by combining it with TUX (the linux kernel based web server) ? Maybe build the python interpreter into it ? I know, speed isn't important, abstraction is better, yada yada yada. It's just totally cool to see results like this, and I want to make Zope as cool as possible. 1000 requests, 100 at a time TUX 2898.55 Requests per second AOLserver 603.14 Requests per second Apache 502.51 Requests per second Zope 60.57 Requests per second bear in mind this is my piece of crap celery 700 with 128Megs RAM __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
