In case it's not: access log is written to when the response
is sent back.

If you need a more granular log of what happens when,
the trace log can sometimes be useful.
Uncomment this in your zope.conf:

# <logger trace>
#   level WARN
#   <logfile>
#     path $INSTANCE/log/trace.log
#     format %(message)s
#   </logfile>
# </logger>

There is a script for analyzing its output in your
zope software installation at bin/requestprofiler.py ,
but I have also found it useful to eyeball the log
from time to time.
