[Zope] Zope Eats Memory

I would think you could do this with <dtml-let> wrapped around your
DTML-call, not that this is entirely graceful?

Yes, I do that alot too. Thought it was preety cool when I first found out.
Now, it's a lifesaver. But, I still need to set REQUEST variables, because
they represent the parameters I'm passing.

Your example:
<dtml-var "callTest(None,_,param1=21, param2='was called from far')">

Mine:
<dtml-var "REQUEST.set('departmentID', '17')">
<dtml-var "REQUEST.set('categoryID', '2')">
<dtml-var "REQUEST.set('productID', '21')">

<dtml-var "callTest(None,_,param1=departmentID, param2=categoryID,
param3=productID)">

Usually, I'll need to set those variables before calling the method. That
way not only is the method dynamic, but the actual call to the method is
dynamic as well.
