This is kind of a distressing message Tony, we'd very much like to see any code that can easily crash Zope.
My experience is that returning a large dataset ( about 40Mb ) from a sql query will crash Zope.
This could very well be a memory error. It would be interesting to know if the underlying libraries could handle a dataset this large, in this case it would not be Zope but the libraries (I can think of no reason why python couldn't handle a 40MB object, but I can immagine a poorly written python extension not doing this right, the old ct_sybase module is a perfect example). You didn't specify what database you are using. -Michel
