Description

Both ContextAssetRequestHandler and StackAssetRequestHandler do not set
lastModified date correctly in production mode. They are set to zero,
which when returned in the browser, the expire header is set to 1979,
which leads to no assets being cached whatsoever, leading to poor performance.
This is with yuicompressor enabled.
