We had tried this sometime back, and apache 2.0 was giving about 1.5 times the performance. But I didn't do any fine tuning stuff, so am not sure how reliable these numbers are. Anyways, the proxy forwarding is still giving terrible performance (as compared to running it just as a webserver) -- about 2-2.5 times worse.
