Insead of ProxyPass, use mod_rewrite to poke around in the filesystem:
RewriteCond /var/cache/app/%{HTTP_HOST}/%{REQUEST_URI} -f
RewriteRule .* /var/cache/app/%{HTTP_HOST}/%{REQUEST_URI} [L]
RewriteCond /var/cache/otherapp/%{HTTP_HOST}/%{REQUEST_URI} -f
RewriteRule .* /var/cache/otherapp/%{HTTP_HOST}/%{REQUEST_URI} [L]
# couldn't find the file in either dir
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://localhost:3000/$1 [P]
Or, let Apache cache things instead of writing them to disk, and it
would be more transparent.
(Note that you need to put the rewrite stuff in per-vhost context,
otherwise it won't work as-is. You also probably want to handle
directories if that makes sense for your app (-d))
