Zend Framework - Bootstrap optimization quick step

I am using zend framework 1.11.11 in one of my application. I have written different _init methods in bootstrap to inilialize seesion,  database connection, loading navigation, view helpers etc.  It worked well initially when traffic to site is low. Afterwords i found that it is affecting performance. So I combined all things under one _init method.


class Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap {


protected function _initApp() {


$moduleLoader = new Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader(array(
'namespace' => '',
'basePath' => APPLICATION_PATH));
               }

                 ## DB initialization ####
                 ## Zend_Registry::set ####
                 ## SMTP initialization ####

}
