I noticed this about Zope a few days ago. I'm the type of sick bastard
that likes to telnet into my web and pop3 servers and issue commands
directly. One thing I noticed, when I telnet into apache and do a "GET /"
I only have to hit enter once, but when I telnet into Zope or for that
matter BoboHTTPD I have to hit enter twice? I have no real knowledge of
the HTTP protocol but is one of these programs not compliant? The only
reason I ask, and why I've been poking around a bit is that I notice the
response from Zope is rather slow compared to Principia 1.7 or some of the
other Bobo apps that I have written.
