If server respond with ETag then next time client (browser) resend it via 
If-None-Match header.
Then httpd will check if file wasn't modified and if not return 304 Not 
Modified status code.
The ETag value is constructed from file's last modification date in unix epoch 
and it's size:
"hex(last_mod)-hex(file_size)" e.g. "5e132e20-417" (with quotes).
That means that it's not completely reliable as hash functions but fair enough.
The same form of ETag is used by Nginx so load balancing of static content is 
safe.
