Something is wrong here. You should be able to restart Zope within a few=20
seconds.

Are you using FileStorage? I guess you are not shutting Zope down cleanly=

unclean shutdown means FileStorage needs to rebuild its in-memory index a=
t=20
the next startup, which is a slow process.

Even with a clean shutdown that preserves the index, startup can be slowe=
r if=20
your database is huge. Using ZEO eliminates this.
