It shouldn't be surprising that an architecture where two servers have to touch every request is going to be slower than an architecture where a single server touches the content. Your proxy server could be slow because the back-end servers are slow, or simply because of the extra work in being a proxy. One way to speed things up, if your content is cachable, is to cache stuff on the proxy. But, in general, you haven't given us much to go on in trying to help you other than saying "my server is slow".
