Take a look at Squid (http://www.squid-cache.org). I have successfully
used it as a front-end accelerator with Orion. With simple redirect
rules I guess you can use it as a load balancer too. It is open source,
very stable and available for most platforms. Although I found a
possible bug in Orion relating to frontend tag. See:

There's also Linux Virtual Server project which is aimed for load
balancing:

Sure, it's possible. Dumb, but possible. See www.orionsupport.com for more
on it. Note that we saw degradation on a massive scale - something that took
12 seconds without apache proxying took 1 minute 45 seconds with apache, in
the worst case. :)

Is it possible to have Apache as Reverse Proxy (front-end) and LoadBalancer
at the same time.?
I think that on the servers you define the front-end and they will collide.
Anyone knows how to do it?
