Jupp, I think so too (about network performance).
As I understood, the whole thread started with an argument that perhaps 
no native zope port for windows is needed because of cygwin.
I would say, as Chris, for development, this is ok, for production
not, the quote from the apache site indicates this.
I doubt zope corp. would accept a 30% tradeoff on windows.

Ok, now let's discuss how feasible windows is for a production
server anyway ;-).
