Since the firewall has to forward packets and enforce security between
interfaces in either case, I wouldn't expect any difference at all in
performance (unless your switch fabric on the inside is extremely busy).

I would advise you to separate the proxy server from the
firewall. Depending on the number of users but there will be a
big degradation if you put the proxy server on the same box as
the firewall.

Subject: [FW1] Proxy server and Firewall-1
I am currently using a Deerfield Wingate proxy server in the DMZ
of a
Firewall-1 firewall
Is it likely to improve performance if I move the proxy server
inside the
firewall, or is this likely to cause any major issues?
