HTTP caching significantly decreases load and becomes especially important for embedded systems. HTTPD already returns Last-Modified header which then browser is sends back to server via If-Modified-Since. Server must compare these two dates and return 304 Not Modified without payload. But the logic is not implemented yes so this makes even worse and more resources are spent: browsers always invalidates their cache, date is formatted for each response and transmitted over networks twice. This set of patches implements caching in most simplest and fastest way.
