Electra, my experience is that you need to be very careful with adding too many plugins to wordpress. Some of them are very poorly programmed and can cause significant performance issues for your sites. There are certain things like tag clouds that are incredibly wasteful of system resources, and just having Googlebot hit your site and pull a couple of hundreds pages (and trigger a couple of hundred tag cloud requests) can pretty much sink a server.

Caching (even wp-cache) can help to lower the load significantly.
