I run a squid accelerator directly in front of zope without using a
redirector.  This works fine for simple sites where the domain is
handled entirely by zope (that is, no special case URL redirection
needed).  Looking at my squid config file I think the key lines are
these:

    httpd_accel_host virtual
    cache_peer localhost parent 8080 0 no-query default
    acl zope_domain dstdomain example.com
    acl zope_domain dstdomain www.example.com
    cache_peer_access localhost allow zope_domain
