Thanks for the tip.  I downloaded it, and here's what I got.

I ran it on vanilla Zope 1.10.2, no changes to defualt page, PII 266, 128MB
RAM, Redhat 6 with 2.2.9.  I have something like 98% idle, and I'm running
Netscape.
The commandline was set to 1000 max length of request, 10 clients, running
the test 100 times, connecting to http://localhost:9673/.
The server continued to run, rather slowly, at all times during the test.
