TFA argues exactly against this point. All that matter (or rather, what matters more) is minimizing the friction for the blog author in order to stay motivated, not if it takes a fraction of a second more for a page to load.

When I tried to decide between a Middleman app with minimal configuration work and easy deploy (Heroku), or Ghost, Wordpress, or something like that, one consideration was page generation time. I calculated that most optimistically, I'd probably write at most three articles a week (which is very optimistic). That means approximately 150 articles a year. That's pretty quick to generate, so I could even leave the generation process to heroku on first page refresh if I wanted.
