Yeah, I tried to update python with Plone and that was mess.  Now, are
you able to run ZEO Server on the same server as Zope/Plone, maybe
through another port?  I am limited to one server and there is no
getting around that.  Right now I have my site mounted on 5 different
ZODBs and it seems to be a pretty good solution for me.  Still, it would
be nice not to have that limitation.

Yes, this works and lets you grow beyond 2 GB.  I know www.zope.org has 
run like this before--it might even be running that way now.  Zope and 
the ZEO server don't need to run the same Python version at all.
