Pound installed on firewall

Is it a good practice install pound and a firewall (iptables/netfilter) 
on same machine?
Scenario: firewall manages only traffic for webservers and pound runs as 
reverse proxy sever and load-balancer (bandwidth 128 MB/h, 35000 hits/h).

Any suggestions and considerations are well accepted.

Thanks.
