---------------------------------------

This is old Tomcat 5.0 connector issue. The discussion at http://www.mail-archive.com/tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg151294.html is about same problem.

> 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.
