PAE

I am wondering what tuning and configuration do you do to make your environment faster?

Here is my experience:

1. Got more memory utilization from installing PAE on 32 bit Linux.
2. Installed APC, tuned MySQL and got about 50-100% performance boost. See my blog post for more details: http://vmirgorod.name/blog/boosted-lamp-drupal-devs
3. Realized that new NetBeans 7.1.2 is working much faster then Komodo IDE, Zend Studio or Eclipse. People says that 7.2 RC are even more faster. Checkout here http://www.netbeans.com/downloads/index.html
