There's a difference between scaling and making something faster. ZEO makes a single instance slower, right. But you can deal with more requests concurrently using ZEO. That's what I consider "scaling".
Agreed. But at the same time, I don't think it makes sense to keep deploying more and more badly tuned instances. That's what I consider "blind shotgun scaling" :) You need to scale, but you also need to tune - and you need to be pragmatic about which is the appropriate approach at any given point in time.
My perspective is always high-traffic systems. I never even consider small sites with few hits, for which ZEO won't do much. I have a blind spot for those ;) jens -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (Darwin) iD8DBQFGS46TRAx5nvEhZLIRAtImAJkBSPFTiwPO4k3LeydaI0udXtv2xwCfcyHQ 0qnQuviEBZsbMD9Uin+/d+8= =kNMS -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
