Hey! I’ve been down the shopfiy sock5 rabbit hole too. Honestly, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. If you’re dealing with a lot of traffic or need better geo-targeting, it’s worth it. But yeah, it can be a headache to set up.
I used ProxyRack for my shopfiy sock5 setup, and it worked pretty well. Their docs are decent, and they have a Shopify-specific guide. Performance-wise, I noticed faster load times for my store, especially during peak hours.
If you’re still on the fence, maybe test it on a staging site first? That way, you can see if it’s worth the effort without messing up your live store.
