  Given that your commenting is on Disqus, is anything on the page actually dynamic for a given viewer? When you add/edit a post, can't you just precompute all* the html/rss output and serve users static pages? Even a super cheap webhost can server static pages super fast. (You'll want to be aware of HTTP caching if you go full out on this; if you serve from static files you'll get a Last-Modified header which triggers cachability heuristics that you don't deal with now) I do recognize that you'll have to update all of your blog entry pages to reflect changes in the recent posts section.
