使用mod_headers或mod_expires落实缓存

实施这一方法将节省你难以置信数额的带宽，极大地加快你的网站为你的网站访客。基本上，对于图片，CSS ， JavaScript以及其他文件可以通过优化更快的下载，告诉你的网站访问者快取记忆体，为他们在某一段时间内。默认的行为是每一次请求检查文件的last-modified 和/或者  Etag headers。

    所以一个用户去/home/index.html，及浏览器缓存所有图象和文件。然后用户离开网站稍后回来，与浏览器发送If-Modified-Since 有条件的GET 请求为每一个缓存的项目时，基本上看，如果文件已被改变和他们必须更新他们的缓存。

    当你执行在这篇文章中所述的缓存方法，你可以指定某文件或扩展名被缓存为某一特定数额的时间。这些文件然后缓存在你的网站访客和他们不发送If-Modified-Since头直到设置的缓存时间已经到了。

 第一个解决办法是Apache模块mod_expires  1.3   2.0   2.2

第二个解决办法是mod_headers 1.3 2.0 2.2

# YEAR
<FilesMatch “\.(flv|gif|ico)$”>
Header set Cache-Control “max-age=2592000″
</FilesMatch>

# WEEK
<FilesMatch “\.(pdf|swf|js|css)$”>
Header set Cache-Control “max-age=604800″
</FilesMatch>

# NEVER CACHE
<FilesMatch “\.(html|cgi|php|htm)$”>
Header set Expires “Thu, 01 Dec 2003 16:00:00 GMT”
Header set Cache-Control “no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate”
Header set Pragma “no-cache”
</FilesMatch>

 注：用filesmatch和files在htaccess文件

    这里是Headers当下载一个JPEG图像的时候，

    这个缓存方案实施后和没有缓存时的效果。
