Also squid has an http accellerator mode.  This is where squid answers
port 80 and returns either a cache response or transparently tunnels the
request onto a webserver.

it works quite well.  It could probably sop up quite a percentage of
zope.orgs static content.  Squid also obeys, better than anything else,
headers from the web server.

something very similar could be achieved by hooking into zhttp_server.
