[Zope] problem: zope freezes with httplib

[Sebastian Lühnsdorf]

hi!

we have a problem with a project where zope retrieves web pages from another 
http server using httplib. the problem is, that at least in some cases Zope 
freezes until a request is completed (the whole process, all threads). we 
believe it could be a problem with the threads, however we have no approach to 
solve this problem. here are the infos:

Zope Version  (Zope 2.4.1 (source release, python 2.1, linux2), python 2.1.1, 
linux2)  
Python Version  2.1.1 (#3, Jan 24 2002, 17:10:04) [GCC 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat 
Linux 7.1 2.96-98)]  
System Platform  linux2  

running with ZServer

ciao, basti
