Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Confirmed

Bug description:
I have posted a fairly simple tweak to apache config file to speed up page load time when using mythweb. It reduced the times from about 45 seconds to around 12 seconds. It was recommended by others on the ubuntu forum to report this as a possible improvement  for default behavior and configuration of mythweb on ubuntu.  

Original post which shows how to manually configure apache mythweb file to load pages faster.

Actually there are two steps

First

Change /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/mythwebdir

Original contents

---

<Directory "/var/www/mythweb">
    Options         FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride   All
</Directory>

---

Modified contents

---

<Directory "/var/www/mythweb">
    Options         FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride   All
    ExpiresActive On
    ExpiresByType application/x-_javascript_ "modification plus 1 year"
</Directory>


For this to work correctly there is a second step.

Second -- apache must load some additional modules.

The following are the modules that made it work.

cd /etc/apache2/mods-available
sudo a2enmod expires
sudo a2enmod deflate
sudo a2enmod headers

and restart apache

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload
