Hi Margus, The point of these things (SSL termination and load balancing) is to generally distribute the workload across multiple machines, allowing a site to scale to a larger number of visitors. If you're doing them all on one machine, it's actually worse, as now you have all the same work being done on one machine, but you have the overhead of multiple apache instances and a more complex setup as well.
