That depends. If you want to have many samples (say every minute), it
would be cheaper to have a long running process doing the collection.

For general consumation, TRS, DRS (SWAP?) would be ok.
For your internal analyzing, you should probably write the data into the
httpd access_log: This way you will have a reference to see which requests
resulted in which changes. Perhaps even make Zope log it's memory size
after each request.
