My own proxy using port 8080 ( hence avoiding the transparent cache ) is fine. I've pasted the relevant section from the speed test below;
You are not avoiding your cache by switching to port 8080, you are simply accessing it properly as a proxy server rather than relying on the port 80 interception. For some reason this often works better even on the same cache.
