There are some expensive ones with dedicated hardware that perform well. Of course, there are tremendous benefits to having the source when you discover that the way some header is handled is not quite right for you, etc. For example, we found we wanted to disable the feature that gets a fresh page from the backend server when the user hits reload, since the cached copy in mod_proxy is the freshest that end users are allowed to see. Basically, mod_proxy and squid have had more work put into making them work as reverse proxies than other servers have. It doesn't like Oops supports a reverse proxy mode. It may not be immediately obvious, but you often need things like ProxyPassReverse (http://www.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypassreverse) when you start using a proxy server in this way. - Perrin
