[support] D6 site very slow

All requests on a D6 (latest) site, from simply viewing a page (cached), 
to performing an administrative action, to running a drush command, are 
painfully slow.

It took about 12 seconds to load the homepage from a remote location 
today; 1-2 seconds is normal for static content, and 3-5 for java 
generated dynamic content, for non-drupal areas of this apache2 
installation.

I disabled the nodetype module via drush (took about 25 seconds to give me 
the confirmation prompt).

It is now taking 5-8 seconds to load each administrative page.  The slight 
speedup suggests that modules are potentially causing the issue here.

I have attached a module list from drush, but is there anything else i 
should be looking at on the drupal side, to provide some kind of speedup?

JS optimization is enabled; CSS optimization is not.
Caching is standard (block caching enabled but may not be being used).
I am currently trying page compression; it was previously disabled.

Thanks for any ideas.
