This is just an Apache Webserver tip I'm passing along. (This might help other people setting up their own image-intensive sites... like TGP's, etc.)
I got a new webserver for hosting my new TGP. (The first TGP I'm doing actually. First Adult site actually.)
And I noticed that the initial download of the images (off of my server) seemed pretty slow. (At least the first time they were being downloaded anyways.)
After looking around a bit, I found that the problem was that "KeepAlive" was "Off" by default in my Apache config file. (Fedora Linux seems to set it up this way.)
Turning it "On" made the image downloads seem alot faster!
If you're having the same problem, this may be your solution.
For more info on the Apache KeepAlive direction see this...

(I'd hot link the URL above,... but the forum won't let me yet. Sorry... you'll have to copy-and-paste.)
