callTraverslHooks is called after any new object has been traversed in the traversal process. See zope.publisher.base.BaseRequest.traverse. afterTraversal is called in zope.publisher.publish.publish after all traversal is done. So yes, you would see multiple attempts to authenticate. Zope cannot guess that you end up at the same place. As Roger suggestedm some caching might be good, if the credentials verification is expensive.
