maybe.

in the bare bones document_view I make a call to <span
tal:replace="here/portal_actions/listFilteredActionsFor" /> I get:

we are not an exception of using the actions tool. Like CMFDefault we called
tal:define="global actions here/portal_actions/listFilteredActionsFor"
and all calls use the actions global variable from there on out.  I dont
think this is a problem.  CMFDefault is less than 100% faster than CMFPlone
as
previously shown.  I've seen breadcrumbing code usually slow things down
*significantly*, but using portal_url I dont see how we could get much
faster.

hmmm.  maybe it *does* lie in PageTemplates.  I change my document_view to a
DTML Method that only does <dtml-var CookedBody>

these results I am satisfied with: ~20 req/sec.  for doing nothing but
showing the CookedBody.
CMFPlone - custom/document_view is <dtml-var CookedBody>

hmmmmmmm.
here is another idea. created a DTML Method that does <dtml-var title_or_id>
put it in root of ZOPE, ab. gives me ~50 req/sec.  (yummy).
call the method 'test' and put it in root of CMF site.  and get.

CMFPlone - not even using the skinning machinery in anyway (or am I?)
create a 'test' DTML Method in the CMF Site root which ony has: <dtml-var
title_or_id>

hmmmm.  this is interesting.  why more than 1/2 the sleep lost just to show
the title_or_id?
