Using squid as opposed to something like APC sounds like a better idea.
The website administrator has just turned off images within signatures
and the performance has increased significantly. So the ability to cache
images is attractive.
I did read somewhere that explicitly stopping Apache searching for
.htaccess files is definately a worth while exercise. I'll add this to
my list. I also need to make sure logrotate is configured correctly and
Apache's logs are being rotated before they grow bigger than 2Gb.
Thanks.
