Nope, a lot of the speed increase came before any hardware change. See posts to this group over the last few days. They changed returned headers so browsers can do more intelligent caching, and they increased the Zope-side object caching. After this, I saw a dramatic improvement - no hardware involved.

It would be useful to see the exact details of how they did it so the rest of us can too.

Hmm, I think that: http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-November/013132.html ...covers the details. If nobody reports breakage on the HTTP header stuff, we'll consider making it a part of future Zope releases. --Paul
