[Zope] Zope vs Apache benchmarks

[Hugo Ramos]

Yellow,

I've tested Zope and Apache on the SAME MACHINE
Because of the Zope rendering on all objects before serving the request I've
done a php script that reads an .html file and serves the output.
Command used: ab -n 100 -c 10 <url>
I didn't like the results!!!!

Any comments???????
