Probably the easiest way to integrate Varnish, at least to begin with, is to run it on the same servers as Apache. This way, cache misses are processed without network overhead, and you can easily run Varnish on just one server in each pair to compare performance. Running Varnish on the Perlbal servers will halve the load on each Apache server, but increase the response time for cache misses.
