J. Atwood: Thank you for taking the time to respond.
There are also huge issues in terms of keeping multiple SQL databases synced up so there is a case to be made to spread ZEO across many webservers with one beefy DB server in the background serving them. That, combined with Zope's ability to cache creates a highly scalable solution (IMHO).
I, personally, am just salivating at the chance to get my hands on ZEO.
I too am waiting with my dinner napkin, knife and fork. Right now I have a 300MB ZODB and not having to deal with the overhead of a RDBMS (and the headaches everyone is having on the list) is very conforting. What DB are you using?
