I also strongly suggest to let Apache take over.
AFAIK the default settings of Apache will be sufficient for that already.
You should save the generated file to the filesystem under the URL that it is called from. Succeeding requests will then be served statically.

I have done this for the symfony framework in a plugin (http://www.symfony-project.org/plugins/sfImageTransformExtraPlugin) but I’m sure even if you do not use symfony you can get some ideas from the readme.

@Anonymous .. in my case I need some extra processing to generate the image and so on. Anyway, I would like to see .htaccess solution, could you post please?

Why not just have Apache do this for you using per-filetype caching, expiration, and etag settings in an .htaccess file? IIS has similar settings.

This method introduces the extra overhead of running a PHP script, to do nothing more than what is already a built-in capability of the web server.

Is there some other reason I’m missing here?
