Interesting question; usually people split geoserver into separate machines in 
order to load balance. A lot of time has spent getting GeoServer close 
physically to the data in order to be efficient; there is no distribution 
between the data reading library and the GeoServer code using it to handle web 
feature server request. Literally as each feature is read out of the database 
the xml is being generated.

If you had to (say for a security setup?) is set up cascading wms in order to 
have a front end geoserver talk to a backend geoserver that actually draws the 
pictures.
