Google Page Speed tells you that cached files slow down your page not because cached files are slower than non-cached ones.

This is why AWS is great. Monitor you server and if that’s either too much or not enough, scale up or down. But it sounds like more than enough.
Usually: no. When WordPress is running on apache with mod_rewrite enabled, it’ll use # BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress To make sure that static files will NOT be served through WP.
