I wrote up a simple proposal for how to change Zope to work better under heavy load:
http://zope.org/Members/bjorn/proposals/MakeZopeFailNicelyUnderHeavyLoad
The solution is a bit different from what we discussed on the list before; basically do away with the Medusa request queue altogether and use listen()'s backlog instead.
Comments are welcome.
I think this might be a viable way, thogu I really can'ty comment on the tech details (becaus of lack of knowledge).
I do remember from quite some time ago that some people had replaced Medusa altogheter with something different (Apache + mod_python, Twisted...) - any one heard anything about this?
