[Zope] Question about caching systems for Zope.

[Chris McDonough]

1.  You could use a RAM cache manager to cache renderings of
particular methods.  This is less effective than using an HTTP
cache, but helps.

2.  If you really want to get fancy, you can make the HTML coming
out of Zope largely the same for each request for any given URL.
Put Squid in front of Zope.  Put apache in front of Squid.  Embed
some PHP (or embperl or mod_python directives, or even server side
include directives, whatever) in Zope's HTML output.  Then register
a handler in apache that gets called for each request,
postprocessing the output.  If the parts you want included are
simple enough, this will scream.  But if you need to call back in to
Zope to get any of the content, it might be better just to let Zope
render the dynamic parts.
