JBoss Tomcat SSL Cache Control Max-Age
Submitted by kai on Mon, 2008-03-24 23:21. ::
If you are running SSL with JBoss, you'd notice that Tomcat always sends "Cache-Control: no-cache" http header which ask browsers not to cache any content. This is a big NO-NO for static content like images, Javascript, css which should be cached by browsers to improve page loading performance.
JBoss wiki has the detail of how to disable cache control.
Once you get that fix, you can use to JBoss's ReplyHeaderFilter to specify max-age header to tell browsers to cache your content.
