Haven't tried this but you could try adding a reverse-proxy in a separate virtual host, for example using ProxyPass.
Or you could add an extra virtual host that serves the same files from a different location and setup some sort of load-balancing so you can switch easily and update the copies one by one.
The latter would be more complicated but doesn't give the overhead of the proxy subrequest, you may want to look into automating the process for updating the files though.

I have a server that is getting a TON of traffic for some small static javascript files. I want to cache them for 3 minutes each. After the 3 minutes is up, I'd want the server to cache each file again as it is called.I want to do this becuase my server gets so much traffic, I'm having filelocking problems when I try to update the source files.What's the easiest way to cache all of the javascript files in the followingexample URL's??http://www.example.com/javascriptcache/folder1/a.jshttp://www.example.com/javascriptcache/folder2/a.js http://www.example.com/javascriptcache/folder3/a.jsDisk based caching would be fine.
