Apache performance tuning - Expires Headers

httpd_logo_wide_thumb_48pxWith the advent of YSlow, we should all now be aware of adding expires headers to our web servers. For my purposes, I wanted to enable it globally, then fine-tune per Virtual Host.

In my Apache httpd.conf, I added the following directives:

<ifmodule mod_expires.c>
<filesmatch \".(jpg|gif|png|css|js|swf|ico)$\">
ExpiresActive on
ExpiresDefault \"access plus 1 year\"
</filesmatch>
</ifmodule>

Thoughts?
