Plone on SSL-only site - best setup method?

Hello!

I'm configuring plone/zope/etc and I am running into a
choice that I am
not sure how to make.  Let me describe my situation.  I have
a server
with 4 IPs.  I have two different domain names associated
with two of
the IPs, for example 192.168.1.1 is testweb.com and
192.168.1.2 is
testweb2.com.

I need Plone to function solely in SSL for each of these
hosts.  I need
to keep port 80 free for a static web page that I'll be
using to
redirect to the SSL plone site.  Additionally, I've
installed the
default install of plone, which installs a Zeo cluster,
which I'd like
to use.  Further, due to the fact that this site will have
high traffic
requirements, I think that Squid would be smart to
implement.

I've considered setting it up the following ways:

Pound -> Squid -> Pound -> ZEO
Apache -> Squid -> Pound -> ZEO

Does this make any sense?  I read about but have been unable
to find
more detailed reference to the fact that caching can be
performed in
zope, meaning I might be able to just use Pound -> ZEO.

Performance is an issue for me as I will have many, many
hits on an SSL
site on a server that is performing several other functions
as well.
Can anyone recommend suggested method for configuring a ZEO
cluster for
the highest performance with SSL?  What additional products
can I/should
I install to further increase performance?

Thank you (and sorry about the long post)!

Nolan
