1) as previously responded, depending on your hardware, no reason you can't have zope and zeo on one machine. BUT, the point is that you want to distribute your processing. I've always said "one function one machine. got another function? get another machine". The zeo clients do all the work, and should be powered appropriate to your web demands, but the zope server can be a small machine as it does little work, once everything is running. SO as to your performance issue, it depends on your machine, which I guess must be small, but I've notcied that python-running-zope is quite CPU intensive, so running two zopes on one machine might be pushing its limits. Get another cheap machine and put your zope/zeo server on there. cheers Graham -----Original Message----- From: Eric Brun [mailto:eric.brun@univ-savoie.fr] Sent: Wednesday, 30 January 2002 20:03 To: zodb-dev@zope.org Subject: [ZODB-Dev] ZEO server and ZEO Client on a same machine Hi, We have three ZEO client with one ZEO Server in our architecture. One of our ZEO client and the ZEO Server are on a same machine. When 30 users connect on this architecture in same time, we have low speed on our services. ZEOClient + ZEOServer on a same machine : is it a way of our problem or not ? Secondly, is there a problem with http and ftp access and ZEO ?? Must we separate process http / process FTP by -X -w80 and -X -f21 for increase performances ? Thanks for yours answers !
