At our company, we wrote something that checks the trace.log file to  
check the status of the current zope requests. The trace.log file  
records when a new network connection is opened, when a thread starts  
processing a request, when a thread is done publishing, and when it  
has finished writing. The tool continuously re-reads the end of the  
file looking for new data records and turns those into SNMP data for  
the number of active requests, the number of queued requests, and the  
average response time.
