I would quickly add that the script-loader / new-upload branch also supports minify along with associating unique id's grouping & gziping.
So all your mediaWiki page includes are tied to their version numbers and can be cached forever without 304 requests by the client or _shift_ reload to get new js.
Hm. Unique ids?
Does this mean the every page on the site must be purged from the caches to cause all requests to see a new version number?
Is there also some pending squid patch to let it jam in a new ID number on the fly for every request? Or have I misunderstood what this does?
