Today I finally got around to setting up Apache to serve static
resources instead of Pylons/Paste. It seems to be making a pretty big
difference in how fast the site loads, even though the site is not
heavily loaded. It's currently getting about 50,000 page views and
about 300,000 hits to static resources per month.
Below is the complete and unvarnished VirtualHost container I'm using
in a production environment (I did obfuscate some things for
"security" purposes). I marked the new lines with ## at the end.
Otherwise, I didn't change anything in my Apache config.
In my app, I made one tiny change in middleware.py and that's it
(noting that I already had `debug` set from current.ini in
`app_globals`):
if g.debug: # Added this and indented the following lines
static_app = StaticURLParser(config.paths['static_files'])
javascripts_app = StaticJavascripts()
app = Cascade([static_app, javascripts_app, app])
