Pressflow is a distribution of Drupal with integrated performance, scalability, availability, and testing enhancements. It can integrate with a web proxy such as Varnish

Add Pressflow base to your Drupal SVN repo
Assuming you have your Drupal repo checked out in /tmp/drupal, create a base folder for Pressflow:

cd /tmp/drupal
svnmkdir pressflow
svn commit -m "Pressflow folder added."

Add/Upgrade the current version of Pressflow to your Drupal repo
Then download the current version of Pressflow and load it into the repo:

cd /tmp
wget http://launchpad.net/pressflow/6.x/6.20.97/+download/pressflow-6.20.97.tar.gz
tar zxf pressflow-6.20.97.tar.gz
rm -f pressflow-6.20.97.tar.gz

Get tid

$storyVid = <vid of the taxonomy you want to match the term to>
$storyTerms = taxonomy_get_term_by_name($termName);
foreach ($storyTerms as $storyTerm) {
  if ( $storyTerm->vid != $storyVid ) {
    $storyTid = $storyTerm->tid;
  }
}

Technology:

Rebuild teasers


$contentType = 'node_type';
$nodeList = db_query("SELECT node.nid AS nid FROM node node WHERE node.type in ('$contentType')");
while ($node = db_fetch_object($nodeList) ) {
$nodeId =$node->nid;

$nodeRevList = db_query("SELECT `nid`, `body`, `teaser` FROM `node_revisions` WHERE `nid`=$nodeId");
while ($nodeRev = db_fetch_object($nodeRevList)) {
//echo $nodeRev->teaser . "";
$teaser = node_teaser($nodeRev->body,NULL, 200);
//echo $teaser;
db_query("UPDATE node_revisions SET teaser = '%s' WHERE nid = %d", $teaser, $node->nid);
$i++;
