Hi, I am new to Zope -- really excited about it -- but have a few basic questions (which I'm sure have been asked before). 1. How well does Zope scale? Is anybody out there using this for high traffic sites? We have been using a custom blend of PHP and Mysql for a busy site and it works pretty well (although MySQL seems to choke when we get really slammed). How well does Zope scale? 2. How fast is Zope? And how does it compare to the PHP/MySQL combo? Are their any benchmarks available? It seems pretty quick but I'm not sure what type of transactions are going on below the surface of the pages I'm looking at. 3. How well does Zope work with MySQL? We have built some pretty serious backend with PHP and MySQL and I'd love to be able to keep our database structure etc. 4. Migrating What is the best way to migrate from a traditional web structure to Zope? For instance do you have to rebuild and register all of your objects with Zope through the web interface? Or can you upload files and have them be recognized by Zope? 5. Editors Are there any offline editors for MAC that you can get to work with Zope/DTML? Thanks for the help Ben

BBEdit should work okay. Only thing I miss from my Mac days, really.
Works dandy when I tried it with the FTP support... just slow, but that seems to be BBEdit, because it's slow against ProFTPd as well. Chris
