Usually, I would prefer non-frame pages (because it is easier
to have a consistent view).

However, for a heavily use side with intense personalization,
I would use frames to separate the personalization (salutation,
personalized menues and views) and the standard content (e.g. news,
content,) into separate frames in order to make effective use of
a cache in front of Zope.
