What is your use case? If this is for a high traffic site serving lots of s=
tatic pages, or your databases are huge and require long running queries, i=
t may be worth it.=20

My situation is the opposite, no static content, low traffic, all of it hit=
ting small databases with 5 or six queries on average per page (for CRM typ=
e apps).

This is what top looks like on a dedibox serving about 20 users :

top - 16:25:21 up 11 days, 44 min,  1 user,  load average: 0,00, 0,00, 0,00
Tasks: 128 total,   1 running, 127 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
%Cpu(s):  0,0 us,  0,1 sy,  0,0 ni, 99,9 id,  0,0 wa,  0,0 hi,  0,0 si,  0,=
0 st
KiB Mem:   4041248 total,  1112512 used,  2928736 free,   134504 buffers
KiB Swap:  4094972 total,        0 used,  4094972 free.   661944 cached Mem

Tests with ab show 50 requests/second, and I don't see a memory problem tha=
t would warrant the overhead of a front-end reverse proxy.
