How do you do this .htaccess RewriteEngine directly on Apache?

Hi I'm trying to learn ZF by following this screencast by Hashimoto:
Zend Framework

He shows howto create a .htaccess file with this content. But what if I don't want to allow .htaccess files, since they slow down Apache servers a lot according to rumours that "they" say on the Internet.

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule !\.(js|ico|gif|jpg|png|css|html)$ index.php

Do I just put the same code directly in this config file on Linux to achieve the same effect like that .htaccess RewriteEngine code?
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf

Yes, you should be able to put the same thing into the VirtualHost container for the host hosting your app.

Or possibly in the global config if you're not using virtualhosts (I'm not sure on this, I always use virtualhosts)

Thanks for the clarification.
