Will "Pound" work with Vicidial in regards to load balancing web servers?

So from what I have read Pound and Haproxy will work and they seem very simple to set up. Anyone care for one over the other, experiences?

We at Vicidial(and Vicihost) usually just use Apache mod_proxy for load balancing(http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mo ... ancer.html).
The guys at GoAutoDial use HAProxy(http://www.haproxy.org/).

I've even used the old-school Linux utility "balance" before for Vicidial load balancing. The fact is that Vicidial does not require web sessions to stay on the same web server, so you can use whatever load balancer you want.
