I think my brain needs a little optimization, or at least a defrag,
because I copied the URL in preparation for filing this issue, and then
I neglected to include it.


Yes, that's the one. Thanks!

This is a series of pages that I am happy to help with, but probably
would not be best to take the lead. I only mention it because (a)
Steven's new leadership and DrupalCon have provided occasion for a big
picture look at our docs, and (b) I've been learning the hard way how
some configurations can hit a Drupal-powered site hard when under
active traffic. This is a documentation gap I'm seeing in an area where
I think many people might find helpful info.


The main optimization topics I see are:



* Modules that can slow down a site with multiple sql queries
* Modules that can be very helpful in improving site performance
* PHP config (httpd, php.ini) tricks to help site performance
* Areas for tips/tricks using Zend and other caching systems people
might have at hand or wish to try
* What kinds of PHP snippets can hit a server hard

Right now, there are links to fabulous resources, and it's delightful
to see it growning, so maybe I'm just being impatient here in wondering
if we can invite some further discussion on how people have optimized
this or that. Case studies in site optimizations, if you will.


As people push their sites do to much more than simple (community)
blogging, insights on optimizations and some how-tos or snippets could
be very beneficial to the community.
