1. Static content and dynamic are on the same server (that will change 
on production).  But they are on different apache virtual.  Mod_python 
is turned off for the static stuff.  Hitting only a static page is very 
fast (6500 requests per second).  Hitting the dynamic side is slow (300 
requests per second).

2. It's gigE between the web server and mysql server, on a dedicated 
switch.  The database is working pretty hard (7000 selects per second), 
but doesn't seem to be the bottleneck.  The webserver is hammered 
(typing any command takes a long time).
3. I'm using prefork MPM on apache with maxclients set to 1000.

We are starting to experiment with caching, but I want to improve the 
raw performance of the site as well.
