Hi All

Back from egypt, ready to serve you again :)

I assume you have tried the standard Plone optimization tricks:

- larger ZODB cache
- No debug mode (seems to be default OFF)
- caching (RamCachemanager) - perhaps even just the front page..

Could speedpack be an option here? (I don't know right away if it requires psyco 
installed, and if it works with Plone < 2.0)

The instance now runs with 4 threads which should be sufficient.

Cheers

	Ivo
