If you have access to this server, i would still use httpd.conf (or a
virtual), unless there is some reason the restarts can't be dealt
with.  httpd.conf is always faster as the server does not have to look
for the .htaccess file  in the current directory (or in any parent
directory) in every request. You may not have enough traffic for this
to concern you, but its worth thinking about.
