CC'ing the list as a few other folks asked similar questions privately.

Er, sorry, I think I read your message too quickly and lead to  
confusion. We're not (yet) using ESIs, pretty much just the stock  
settings.  We've got it fronting Apache which multiplexes to 4 backend  
Zope instances running Plone.

We're running varnish-1.1.2. I don't think I'd be comfortable living  
on the bleeding edge for a public site, not unless I learned a LOT  
more about varnish anyway :-)
