If you have a single CPU system, ZEO will slow things down...

Apache, too, will slow things down (although I would recommend
to use it in production for other reasons and therefore include
it in the benchmark) -- unless you use it to serve static content
or provide caching.

ZEO will only speed things up when more CPUs are involved.
You will then also want to have a LoadBalancer (e.g. "pound")
to send requests to the different Zope processes.
