Hey Guys, We had the exact same issue when last tested for performance and even thou the image had not changed the webapp made a request back to the server to check... I resolved this by setting headers on the images when they were originally served up by Tomcat (using a servlet filter). I can post code examples if needed.
Hope this helps.

I'm not that sure about the client side but I've heard mention of something called Squid which can cache static content quite well and would sit as a proxy in front of Tomcat.
