Yes, actually running the proxy on your Linksys router would be most
likely too much for it to handle. Not to mention, there is really not
an easy way to add a hard drive to these if you plan on doing web
caching as well.
FYI, here is a little howto on how to transparently redirect web traffic
to your proxy from a Linksys WRT54G (or something similar) using DD-WRT:

Thanks for all the input. I actually already have a Linksys router
for a hardware firewall, and I wasn't planning to replace that. For
the two of you that recommended splitting the hardware, would it
change your mind if I limited the new machine to content filtering
proxy and NAS (and leave the firewall and NAT to the router)?
