[Zope] restrcting zope to a single processor on Solaris8 machine

[Tena Sakai]

Hi folks,

I am running zope on Solaris 8 (sparc, SF4800, 4 processor) machine.
Recently, a major app was taken off this machine and I started to
experience problems.  The problem is that response time is exceedingly
and unbearably slow.  Having read a thing or two, I suspect this is to do
with Global Interpreter Lock of python not being able to use multiple cpu's.

I am trying to use psrset command to fix the problem, but so far unsuccessful.
What I have done is to write a one-line shell script that says
      psrset -e 1 Path-to-Zope-Directory/start
where 1 is a processor_set_id (created via "psrset -c" command) and this
set uses strictly one processor.  But the start script cannot finish execution.
It complains as to permission denied for var/Z2.pid file.
