Hi Zope Fans,

Here are pointers to some Zope Documentation explaining several ways to
improve Zope performance by pushing content out to static storage (file
system) where it can be served by a "dumb" (fast!) http server. 

Dynamic Zope is wonderful, marvelous, but like many things perhaps it should
be saved for those tasks where less sophisticated means are clearly
inadequate. In other words, use the specialist when you need to, leave the
rest to generics.

Another item still eludes me, for I dimly recall a Tip or How-TO about
redirecting a "file not found" error to Zope for dynamic generation of a
page. On success, the new page can then be added to the file system, so next
time the file will be served conventionally.

My apologies to those who sincerely believe that Zope can be all things to
all Web Surfers. The above is evidence that some folks have found a role for
Zope as an enhancement to their Web Sites, rather than as the foundation.

Later,
