[Zope] zope and caching

[Bak @ kedai]

hi good people
i've been using zope for quite some time now.  everything has been great; zope,
the mailinglist, products are great!  

<rant>
i want to serve a dynamic site and zope fits the bill.  now, i think i want to have 
some of the dynamic methods cached, so as to reduce the cpu cycles on my server. 

y'see, the site has slowly bogged down as the number of users increase(dwhich is
good, the users increase :)) and cpu cycles processing user requests have
increased.  i'm not too sure (being a newbie) whether all my methods contribute
to the consumption of cpu cycles.

caching.  yes, i've tried putting cache headers on my docs, but it  seems that
ie do not honor the headers, or maybe i put it wrongly.  ie(4.x and 5.x) kept
showing the cached version of my pages, even after clearing the local cache.  
only deleting the temp files solved the problem.  i had no bad behaviour from
netscape.  

also tried ZCache, but according to the product author, better wait for the
next version.  so, i'm waiting.

meanwhile, i've tried Cache Pool, and it looks good.  i have yet to test the
effectiveness of Cache Pool, but it looks as if the page loads faster now.
</rant>

the point is this:
will zope ever have a method cacheing modules/object in the future?  for i think zope can be faster if he/she/it have this built in.

just a thought.  what say you guys?  how do you guys tackle this?

thanks
