You can use ZEO even on the same machine.
If you're running Zope and Postgres on the same
machine you should either limit the nice level for
postgres or move it to another machine, since
postgres (and every other heavy process) can choke
your zope instances a bit.

But overall performance is influenced by many things,
you schould carefully look at bottlenecks, improve sql
statements, look where you can get many information at once
with one request, cache results, cache even pages etc.
