Can anyone share their experiences on Zope's performance, what your
hardware / Zope configs are, and how you plan to scale ?
Danny,
Reading this as a user of Plone, which hogs far more resources than
Zope, I feel like a C programmer might if they saw someone ask whether
others had managed to get their Assembly programs to perform OK. ;-)
If you put Apache or Squid in front of Zope to provide caching, and
use, say, 2 ZEO clients , with 4 threads each, and use "this year's
model" machine, say 2.5Ghz, 1G RAM (unless you've got loads of huge
files inside the ZODB which isn't a great idea anyway) - that should
really be most of the work.
Even if you plan to have a gigantic site with huge numbers of users,
the time it would take for that content to be added and the userbase to
grow would give you plenty of opportunity to explore a few other
performance tricks in the meantime.
Regards
Nick
