The week-end would be nice. Getting out of office before 9 PM on a
week-day would be a very unpleasent experience.

The MySQL and Oracle connectors are supposed to be very good. The
PostgreSQL connector is supposedly rather primitiven but functional.

That, and PostgreSQL's rather dismal performance have forced me to go
back to MySQL (which I'd dumped earlier because it didn't support
subselects and transactions).

We fed 50,000 records into a PostgreSQL table and did a select * on it.
It took over 10 minutes to respond, and took up so much memory in the
process that it turned everything else on the system (64 MB / 100 MB
swap) into a zombie/defunct process. It was so bad that /sbin/reboot or
init 0 did absolutely nothing -- the reset button was the only way out.

Sandesh/anyone, got a clue on this? vacuuming and indexing didn't help.

Zope itself tends to freeze at times due to what appears to be a bug in
the DTML Method display code: if the content you're throwing up has the
MIME type set to text/html and doesn't start with a <html> tag, Zope
will attempt to insert "<html><head></head><body>" at the beginning. It
frequently goes into nirvana doing that though.


Forgive this one little problem and the fact that the security system
takes a little getting used to, and you'll find Zope an amazing
environment to work with. Truly worth your time.
