You may want to check out Varnish if you are going the reverse-proxy route. From their FAQ:

Why bother with Varnish - why not use Squid?

Varnish was written from the ground up to be a high performance caching reverse proxy. Squid is a forward proxy that can be configured as a reverse proxy. Besides - Squid is rather old and designed like computer programs were supposed to be designed in 1980. Please see ArchitectNotes for details.
