It's worth pointing out that your compiled website is analogous to
using a Squid accelerator cache without an object expiry date, and
where one has configured Squid to ignore anything that might tell it
not to cache something.

To that end, you might be able to use Squid (or any accelerator cache)
to "compile" your site by requesting every page and link via wget -m
or similar, and then transferring Squid's state to the remote server.

I don't know anyone who's used an accelerator cache to do something
like that, though.
