“Almost all programming can be viewed as an exercise in caching.”

Personally, I’d try to build ready-to-serve static HTML files for
as much content as possible, for a large array of reasons. The
biggest one is that few people will take the time to reimplement
all facets of HTTP in their scripts, while Apache knows how to
handle things like If-Modified-Since conditions for static files
all by itself.
