[ZODB-Dev] Max requests for ZEO Server

We have a ZEO server running Zope-2.5.1 and ZEO 1. I am interested to know
the number of requests a ZEO Server can handle simultaniously. It is my
understanding that FileStorage uses one big file with one file pointer. I
would guess that the ZEO Server can only process one request for an object
at a time. Is this true? If so how are the requests queued up for
processing? How does the overhead for reads vs. writes compare? Any rough
idea how many objects a ZEO Server can serve per second (on a fast
machine)?

Thanks,
