Does anyone know if the 2.0.5 windows release of Plone includes ZEO?
Do you have installed it? Then see whether the "Zope" part contains the folder "ZEO" (usually in "lib/python"). If it does, then it contains "ZEO".
Also does Zope 2.8 for linux have ZEO as standard.
Yes, I think so. Again: install and check whether the "ZEO" part is there.
Finally, if you don't run ZEO does this mean that Zope can only handle one request at a time?
No. It only does mean that a single process can access your ZODB data. A standard Zope process has 4 worker threads that can execute requests in parallel. Note, however, that even when you run on a multi-processor maschine, the various Python threads may not be able to truely run in parallel (a single process allows only a single thread to execute Python code; other threads may wait on something external or execute non Python (e.g. C) code, but they cannot execute Python code truely in parallel). -- Dieter
