you can do some searches for "benchmarking" which should turn up helpful information.

Beyond that there is the performance group on groups.drupal.org and 2bits.com which has a great deal of optimization information

Perhaps, overload is coming from outside drupal - you need root access to fix that. Such things happen in dedicated servers due to default apache and mysql settings provided by the hosting company. I recently came across a few clients of mine who had similar problems - it was not related to drupal directly but it took several days for us to optimize apache and mysql.
