[Zope] perpetual outages

You are referring to the -i on the command-line?

Back to what you said about threads. Are you REALLY saying that I have to
commit the transactions ? A word to all on this, use the detailed loggin
option. Thanks to Dieter's help, I found out that Zope in my case is
rear-ending dbms threads. A new user comes online and starts using the
thread of the process that ran before, which basically stop Zope from
responding to the world. What I want to know is why the transaction
mechanism is doing this, and why didnt it ever happen in previous releases
to Zope 2.3.2. Is this a bug?

I have seen this problem with two lazy Zope sites (yes, many
others reported similar problems).
When I installed a checker process that periodically checks
availability, the problem went away.
I cannot explain this....
