I'm presenting a talk on Drupal "Performance and Scalability" at the March Meetup for the Sydney Drupal Users Group. In preparation I have produced a series of articles on various aspects of Drupal and the LAMP stack. I have tried to cover the field as best I can. Some of the material is from my own experience but a lot of it is from discussions which have taken place in this group. The articles are at a fairly high level in parts but do attempt to fill in the detail by providing links to other articles which do a good job of discussing the area.
I'd appreciate it if you could check the articles out and provide suggestions if you think improvements can be made. I'll incorporate all suggestions back in where appropriate.
Squeezing the last drop from Drupal: Performance and Scalability

Applause, applause!
Wow this is excellent, Murray. Certainly most of us here know a lot of this stuff already, but it is so easy to forget something, and so nice to have everything all in one place. You stick to the subject, and identify every crossroad along the way in an efficient manner. Already I have bookmarked several of your pages and forwarded part 6 to my clients' hosting companies ;-)
Well done, man. Everybody here can benefit from this.
