[Zope] Tweaking performance

Hi,

I've got questions around # threads and cache sizes to use with Zope / Plone
2. My server box is:

Dell Poweredge server
Intel XEON processors @ 2.4Ghz
4x73GB SCSI drives in a RAID 5 array
1GB RAM
single CPU

I've heard from some people that it can be advantageous to run more than one
ZEO client per CPU, if the machine is fast enough. I've also heard from some
people that fewer threads with larger caches can be faster and other people
saying that performance with less than 4 threads can be sluggish.

Anyone willing to comment further on there own experiences?

Thanks,
Gerry
