How (and if) is it possible to deduce the total size of a website from the filesize of Exported ZEXP files in Zope? If it's not possible to find a formula for the ratio of zopestuff and htmlstuff, is there any other way of getting a good estimate of "how big a site is"?

The size of a ZEXP should be a pretty good estimate. Its structure is quite similar to the object database. The differences are the lack of history, versions, and database index information in the ZEXP. However, it would also be possible to write an external method which computes directly the size of all pickles in a branch. In fact, here's a start: def compute_size(self): oid = self._p_oid jar = self._p_jar p, serial = jar._storage.load(oid, jar._version) size = len(p) for subob in self.objectValues(): size = size + compute_size(subob) return size It won't work at the root of a site, but it will work most other places.
