Our site isn't especially large or complex (http://nanotek.nano.ku.dk). We 
do use the re-library and PIL rather extensively, but nothing the machine 
can't handle.

I'd like to try and set up Zope in another login-class. It seems correct, 
as there are soft limits on memory usage in the default class. How would I 
go about this? Do you use a custom zopectl or run it straight off inetd? 
I'm not too experienced in OpenBSD-specifics yet, so any advise is 
appreciated.
