Currently I'm developing high-loaded financial portal(we use LAMP to run our project). There are great number of incoming data to be processed and stored. So optimization tasks become very important for us.

Could you suggest books, articles or resources, that discover optimization questions (especially bboks).

NOTE: At the moment I'm reading great book High Performance MySQL, but besides I want to know other facilities of optimization.
