The Ehcache documentation on web caching should be a good start. For a quick start they also have a code sample / recipe on that.

EDIT: (how to see if it's working)

  1. enable logging for package net.sf.ehcache.constructs.web.filter (e.g. DEBUG level) and look at the log entries
  2. SimplePageCachingFilter is gzipping the response; look for Content-Encoding: gzip in HTTP response headers - Content-Length should be smaller than before
  3. ehcache.xml: configure cache to overflowToDisk="true" and set <diskStore path="target/ehcache-diskStore"/> - a (at first empty) file named SimplePageCachingFilter.data should have been created there
  4. JMX / cache statistics (more complicated; see JMX-Tutorial)
  5. ...
