Unless your web site consists almost entirely of static content, then
adding a front end will probably just slow things down (as well as
making your life a lot more complex).

Check out Peter Lin's performance testing from back in January:
http://cvs.apache.org/~woolfel/benchmark_summary.doc
http://cvs.apache.org/~woolfel/benchmark_summary.sxw
http://cvs.apache.org/~woolfel/tc_results.html

There are other reasons for using httpd (such as a poor-man's load
balancer for a Tomcat cluster), but serving static content isn't really
one of them anymore.
