Quoting Michele Marcionelli (michele.marcionelli@math.ethz.ch):
2. Since I am planing to run two zope clients on the same (dual processor) machine, I think that it is better to use socket (faster) instead of tcp/ip. Is that correct?
Question...(depending on the OS) instead of running two separate clients on the same machine, could one not just run more threads, and either allow the OS to schedule them on the other processor, or bind the LWP to the other processor as needed?? By using LWPs, you have the benefits of a single address space, which can reduce/remove the need for IPC (though you do have a form with thread communication/sync calls), and you don't have to go through the hassles of setting up zeo.
Hemm, well: I'm running 'Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3' on an 'Intel Dual Xeon 2.8GHz' with hyper-threading... What do you suggest me? Regards, Michele
