I'm running one of my zope servers (2.7.0b3) on a very slow celeron 500Mhz with <200Mb RAM. It also runs Postgresql, apache and Squid, but Zope takes by far the most amount of memory. What configurations can I make to limit Zope to use less memory? -- Peter Bengtsson, http://www.peterbe.com

these are pretty obvious, bet you are already aware of them.... you can reduce the cache-size but that will most likely increase CPU usage, requests might also "seem" slower. Using Directory Storage might reduce your RAM usage also. <--> george donnelly ~ http://www.zettai.net/ ~ "Quality Zope Hosting" Shared and Dedicated Zope Hosting ~ Zope Servers ~ Zope Websites Yahoo, AIM: zettainet ~ ICQ: 51907738 ~ Sales (USA): 1-866-967-3669

Depending on how heavily loaded yo uexpect it to be, you could drop down the number of threads Zope runs with... Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
At the current price of RAM, the best solution is to increase your memory on the under-resourced machine. On Tue, 23 Mar 2004, Chris Withers wrote:

... and while you're upgrading make sure /var/tmp has lots and lots of space, and that your swap partition is nice and huge... add a disk ... Squid will thank you too :) On Tuesday, March 23, 2004, at 10:44 AM, Dennis Allison wrote:
