Still using 3.4.x, but we've modified the local/html/NoAuth directory so 
that the content does not need to be parsed by a mason (e.g., the css 
files), and then added:

Alias /NoAuth/ /data/rt/local/html/NoAuth/
<Directory /data/rt/local/html/res>
     AllowOverride None
     order deny,allow
     allow from all
</Directory>

before the rest of the RT directives.  Thus apache is handling the 
content directly rather than letting Mason unnecessarily use CPU, IO, 
and bandwidth.
