Optimimum altitude charts (best specific range) I've seen are for a set mach number. For a 737 NG or A320, as I recall shows that optimum altitude (based on weight) does not depend on isa deviation. The line on the graph has always been well below the maximum altitude, although certainly, the max altitude decreases as temperature increases. Can't say I saw a line for ISA + 30 though
