Perhaps Kamp is qualified to discuss what some 'load-balancers' do...

The proxy developers have always had their doubts about SPDY (you can see them when @mnot first proposed it as a starting point)

Terminating SPDY at the HTTP Router makes a lot of sense architecturally but I know some orgs don't terminate SSL at the load-balancer due to the licensing costs.

Ultimately we need load-balancing options and someone to develop the opensource proxies (haproxy, varnish etc.) into more sophisticated offerings.

Perhaps they'll be a SPDY module for Traffic Server
