I realize this is a really vague question, but is there something I can put in my .htaccess to enable more caching for my static pages? Since I've moved a data-heavy site over here, it seems like it's reloading from scratch everytime I pull up a page.
.htaccess setting for more caching?

Here's a good Sitepoint article about Caching with PHP/MySQL
Gzipping is not caching, but it can help performance. I put these lines in my php.ini file:
Code:zlib.output_compression = ON; zlib.output_compression_level = 1;

There is a way indeed to send cache-related http headers to the client. This is what I use for static images and stuff that doesn't change often: just add text/html for your web pages to be cached (client-side). Values are in seconds from last access; look the Apache docs for more options (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/mod_expires.html)
<IfModule mod_expires.c>
