[Zope] Zope memory usage out of control

[Gerald Gutierrez]

I'm uncertain as to how to tell for sure, but I would very much expect that 
all those "processes" are indeed threads and that, really, only 11.9% of 
the memory is taken up by Zope, not the 6 * 11.9% = 71.4% that the process 
table seems to indicate.
