The pypy guys would probably like to help zodb, one thing that they keep
repeating is that to help any project they need a self running benchmark,
something you can just run and then analise the results. If you guys have
it I'm betting the pypy team can help to make it fast. My tip would be to
call it the zope/plone database benchmark so that it would carry more the
weight of the killer apps using it (that have a good market share in the
python world).
