If you are technical enough to understand (and care about) the implications of this issue, consider hosting on S3. Hosting costs me about $2 per month on lower-traffic websites. The s3_website gem makes it straightforward. Response times are reasonable and inelastic with regard to traffic.

If the content is good and free then waiting 2 seconds more is acceptable IMHO. :-) [1]: http://daringfireball.net/ http://daringfireball.net/ - JG being probably the most prominent example.
