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.
