Many Zope's + one ZEO. There is a "ZEO" HowTo around. [snip]
Thanks again. I will have that worked out and perform the same test. Will post the results once done.
How about apache taking the http hits and zope doing the dynamic work. Will that be any better/worse than what you are suggesting???.
I would venture a guess that apache with caching enabled - or Squid - will give you a much more noticeable increase in performance than adding one or more additional nodes to your ZEO cluster... IF you are serving a significant amount of cacheable data: images, semi-static content... OTOH, if you are doing a lot of really dynamic stuff - updating content, running catalog queries that need to be very up to date, etc. - then ZEO will give good benefits. Read Chris M's paper. It's got a lot of good info. -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com
