Internet Explorer does not cache resources with Apache httpd+mod_jk frontend.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: RF-6733
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-6733
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: browser compatibility
    Affects Versions: 3.3.1
         Environment: any server + mod_jk frontend, IE6-7
            Reporter: Alexander Smirnov

The Apache Httpd server with mod_jk cuts some cache control directives. As a result, Microsoft IE loads all JavaScript's, stylesheet and images for every occurence, which significant decrease performance .
Possible workarounds are:
Using Http 2.x with mod_proxy, mod_proxy_ajp and mod_cache instead of mod_jk, which was deprecated in favour of mod_proxy - NOT YET TESTED.
Use caching Squid frontend.
