Don't we all? Try these:

1. stat() is slow, try not to use it
2. Don't pass images through PHP if at all possible
3. Get Fiddler (www.fiddlertool.com) - It will let you see the HTTP
   response headers. It will show what's actually being requested from
   you server. Typically, images are cached by the user agent , whereas
   PHP files are not.
4. Don't use mod_rewrite if at all possible
5. Recompile Apache with just the modules you need
6. Recompile PHP with just the stuff you need
   NB: You can always recompile later if your needs change
7. Don't use off the shelf components when you don't need to. PEAR::DB
   is one example - I was using this but then mimicked the API saving
   50k of code. Quite significant if you're not using an accelerator.
