is it slowing down the speed of my box extremly?
Can you refer me some tutorial to setup reverse proxy
Not really, latency yes; throughput not usually. Also depends what your trying to do...

Cloudflare can hide your IP if you setup DNS records correctly.
This works in case you run only the web server.
If you set your domain as in the picture above, no resolver can find your real IP.
@Vita Just a reminder, if you go that route, then you need to ensure that your server doesn't leak the IP, e.g. in error pages
Cloudflare is essentially a reverse proxy
Yes of course, It's a recommendation to disable all info that apache2 shows if you use it. I mostly use nginx, with default config it works out of the box.
You are right, you need to be sure about those things.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that CloudFlare has Smart Errors enabled by default, so your server info won't get leaked unless you intentionally leave phpinfo() or have some script that shows your servers info.
Thats what I was talking about
So gre tunnels all connections and pages? So nobody cant leak something like with cloudflare?
Cloudflare - it's free and easy to use.
