[Zope] ZEO recommended for single-cpu?

[Pascal Peregrina]

Also, concerning multi-cpu, I think it's the other way around.

Because python processes only use one CPU, it's useless to run one Zope
instance on a multi-cpu system, as only one CPU will be used.  That's why on
multi-cpu system lots of people run at least Zeo + one instance of Zope (and
often one Zope instance per CPU).

But Zeo is really lightweight, so it's worth trying to use Zeo+Zope on a
single cpu system, to take advantage of what Chris describes below.

Typically it's because:

- Zope starts faster in a ZEO setup.
- You can use "zopectl debug" to get into a debugger session
  without shutting down Zope first if you use ZEO.

- C
