Yes, it's very cool.

Unless your templates are changing frequently (I can not think why this
would be) you might as well let TT cache them locally though.

Store the data (objects / user sessions etc) in memcache so that they do not
have to be recreated on each machine - that's where the big load tends to
be. If a set of templates is accessed often and your on *nix then they'll be
kept in any free ram by the OS in any case.
