[Zope] delays when processing form posts

[Fernstrom, Christer]

I get unexpectded long delays from Zope e.g. for processing form posts. For 
example from an edit view under the management screen, simply requesting "wider" 
takes at least 20 seconds (on a Pentium 2, 400 MHz under W2000). I'm not on a 
network, and I remember sometimes having had problems working off-line with 
HTTP servers in Python (blocking until time-out in a socket call). I have tried to 
trace socket calls, but haven't seen anything unexpected. I'm new to Zope - maybe 
this is normal behaviour?? Any hints?
