[Zope] multiple Zope connections to the same database within different branches

[Julian Clark]

Hi list.

I'm just curious, if you've got two connections to the same database in 2 different branches at the same level, is it better to put
those 2 connections in the 'trunk' of those two branches.

Is there performance reasons to do so/ not to do so?

for example
ZopeRoot
   ---branch1
       --- dbconn billybob
   ---branch2
       --- dbconn billybob

as compared to
ZopeRoot
      ---dbconn billybob
      ---branch1
      ---branch2

Say also, if branch1 experiences much more traffic than branch2 (which is the case in my installation), is this much of a
consideration?

Are there any other issues here which I would need to be aware of?

Cheers,

Julian
