OK I have been trying to figure out why this keeps happening but the Zope server seems to run fine for a day and slow to a crawl as the day goes by. This happens to the point that I have to restart the Zope server. This works fine till the server gets hit with heavy traffic or as a day grows on and it slows down again. What can i do to optimize the server so this wont happen? It gets so bad that even just Apache served sites slow down also. This only happens with our main Zope install. This runs our primary site. It has the most stuff in it using ODBC to connect to access databases and some MySQL activity is happening on the server also. The Python process for this server is only utilizing only about 50% of the processor recourses but this is steady. It also climbs up to 200K+ in memory usage. I am more than willing to answer any questions you may need to help me figure out what is going on here. TIA Sherwood
