I just attended CapitalCamp in DC, and one of the sessions was High Performance Drupal: Step by Step.<div><a href="http://www.capitalcamp.org/sessions/high-performance-drupal-step-step">http://www.capitalcamp.org/sessions/high-performance-drupal-step-step</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>The slides from the session are available on the page referenced above. The presenter, Fabian Franz from Trellon, made one point early on:</div><div><br></div><div><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

Then went on to say the four pillars of high performance for Drupal sites are: </div><div><ul><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; ">Pressflow / Drupal 7</span></li><li>APC</li><li>MemCache</li><li>
Varnish and Boost</li></ul></div><div><br></div><div>It may not possible to use Pressflow (with an installation profile). In that case he suggested to use the other three. </div><div><br></div><div>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. </div>
