I just attended CapitalCamp in DC, and one of the sessions was High
Performance Drupal: Step by Step.
http://www.capitalcamp.org/sessions/high-performance-drupal-step-step

The slides from the session are available on the page referenced above. The
presenter, Fabian Franz from Trellon, made one point early on:

   *"If you build the house on one pillar, it'll not **hold long ..."*


Then went on to say the four pillars of high performance for Drupal sites
are:

   - Pressflow / Drupal 7
   - APC
   - MemCache
   - Varnish and Boost


It may not possible to use Pressflow (with an installation profile). In that
case he suggested to use the other three.

The slides have a little more detail though the presentation included much
more, and he showed how quickly all four could be added using command line
His style is a somewhat unusual (you'll see if you check out the pdf), and
the information seemed good. See what you think.
