per default: no, but on a not-windows machine caching of static files isn't really needed, since the filesystem cache works very well. However, if your amount of static content is larger then the filesystem cache is, or you can see through measures that caching would improve performance i would strongly suggest you look into outsourcing the static content to a fast http server which is specialized on content delivery like lighthttpd. By the way, if your amount of html pages is fair (hundreds, not thousands), make them jsp. Jsps are classes and therefore a) resides in memory, b) are written through the jspwriter which is faster than the servlet writer.
