 hmmm, interesting. Since we are using Amazon's Elastic LB to load balance
 these app. servers running of EC2 instances and we do not have any direct
 access to the ELB logs or systems, pining this problem on the ELB might be
 difficult (although AFIAK, the ELB setup also uses apache -- I could be
 mistaken though).
 
 If it isn't too much effort could you please point me to the apache bug you
 mentioned ?

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46949

That is one I ran into before. There are some others like it but I did not 
immediately find them. The bug has been closed as fixed but people still seem 
to be having that problem. I found others besides myself that ran into that 
problem also on supposedly fixed versions and most just ending up going to 
nginx instead.

 Hi,
 
 I have a setup where 4 ZEO clients running on separate machines connect to
 a single DB server which runs on a different system by itself. The ZEO
 clients and the DB server all are at version ZODB3-3.10.2. Now, since the
 last few weeks some of our users have been reporting that they
 occasionally see incorrect images being returned.

One thing you may want to look at is the load balancer. Apache has a bug that 
keeps being opened and closed again for swapping data between requests under 
load. Because it happens at the apache level and not the zope level you will 
never see this problem in any of the zope logs.

Just make sure you don't have a similar situation or you could end up 
debugging the wrong thing to a huge waste of time. In my case I spent a lot of 
time debugging zope and when I finally discovered it was apache that was 
screwing up I ended up just dumping apache for nginx.
