Debugging tools + Discussion of MySQL config

A couple of great debugging tools to determine what part of a site is causing slowdown:

xhprof PECL package: http://pecl.php.net/package/xhprof
Drupal Devel module: https://drupal.org/project/devel

Of course not everyone uses MySQL as their backend DB server, but here are two ongoing discussions related to MySQL config for Drupal (specifically 7.x):
