624   ## Security Considerations
625  
626   ### 1. **IP Address Spoofing**
627   - Validates IPs against private ranges
628   - Filters proxy-provided IPs appropriately
629   - Configurable reverse proxy trust
630  
631   ### 2. **Session Security**
632   - Binds sessions to IP address
633   - Binds sessions to TLS status
634   - Supports both file and database storage
635   - HttpOnly cookies by default
636  
637   ### 3. **TLS Enforcement**
638   - Automatic HTTPS upgrade when configured
639   - Marks TLS sessions to prevent downgrade attacks
640   - HSTS header support
641  
642   ### 4. **Content Security**
643   - CSP headers to prevent XSS
644   - X-Frame-Options to prevent clickjacking
645   - X-Content-Type-Options to prevent MIME sniffing
646   - Referrer-Policy control
647   - Permissions-Policy for browser features
648  
649   ### 5. **File Serving**
650   - Validates file existence and readability
651   - Prevents directory traversal via `realpath()`
652   - Rejects symbolic links
653   - Special CSP for SVG and PDF files
654  
655   ### 6. **Cache Security**
656   - Cached only for anonymous users
657   - Disabled for sensitive operations (edit, watch)
658   - Only GET requests cached
659  
660   ---
661  
662   ## Performance Optimization
663  
664   ### 1. **Page Caching**
665   - Stores full HTML output
666   - TTL-based expiration
667   - Language and method-aware caching
668   - Conditional request support (304 Not Modified)
669  
670   ### 2. **MIME Type Caching**
671   - Loads MIME types once and caches
672   - Regenerates only when config changes
673  
674   ### 3. **Session Options**
675   - File-based sessions for simple deployments
676   - Database sessions for distributed systems
677  
678   ### 4. **Compression**
679   - Manual gzip implementation
680   - Proper Content-Length generation
681   - Only compresses appropriate sizes
