[Zope-dev] How can I tell what a Zope Process is doing?

[Chris Withers]

Hi,

I have a Zope instance whose memory usage is ballooning every so often (to 800Mb 
or so :-S) Now, I can see using top that one Zope process is using a lot of CPU 
and I'm guessing it's doing some silly iteration that's dragging huge numbers of 
objects into memory.

The problem is that I'm having a pretty hard time figuring out what this process 
is doing and how I can prevent it. So, does anyone have any idea how I can find out?

As a related question, does the line get written to Z2.log before or after 
serving the request has been completed?

Hmmm, just had another thought. Does ChrisM's 'big m' logging show how much 
memory was used to serve a particular request?

cheers,

Chris
