Morning Guys/Gals, I write in regards some wierd performance issues that we have been facing at work. I will illustrate the same in brief. We are a large consultancy based out of India evaluating App Servers for deployment by customers world wide. I am neither a code guru nor a zope admin guru but am getting along well with the same and work for the Performance Engineering Group here. Towards benchmarking any app server we port our "TPC-W" certified web application to the enviornment. TPC-W is based in many flavours jsp/asp and now zope_dtml. Some very simple basic transactions short-circuited(Without Sql queries) on Weblogic/Websphere give me 5-10 times the throughput that i got with simple zope pages. To illustrate the figures...i got a 30TPS(Transactions per sec) compared to a 150+TPS with weblogic/websphere. All zope code i have writte via the ZMI is very simple DTML code. Nothing fancy. Lemme tell you all that i have 5+ years on gnu/linux and worked with Red Hat. Just to let you know i am serious about the figured above and just dont want to show something in poor light. Do help me push zope to the limits and i will share the results of the benchmarks as obtained. Somethings i need to start with.....
Caching of Objects in Zope Dynamic Thread Management Features in Zope Shared pool connection management for SQL queries Tuning Documents Monitoring of current instance Capability to pump test load across numerous Zope Servers(If none of the above work)
Appreciate any feedback on the same fellas.
