Slow server

Hi,

I am trying to deal with a server that is getting slower and
slower.

Machine is based on a AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 244 with 4GB
memory.

It is running MySQL, and Apache 13 and serving about 400 web
sites
written in PHP.

OK the design of PHP is certainly not the most efficient,
but actually
the server cannot hold 50 simultaneous http connections.

I am wondering:

1) what optimization I should look for in the system

2) as there are many connections comming from search engines
siders
   (90% of all the established connections), I'd like to
limit the
   ressources that spiders are using. One way would be
through IPFW,
   but are there better ways? Is there a way to
limit/prioritize in
   Apache (not that I know any).

Best regards,

Olivier
