Comment(by mikeperry):

 Also, note that the blog may be an attractive target for ddos attacks,
 exploit attempts, spambots, etc. So far, the worst we've seen are a few
 slashdottings, but it might not always be that way.

 Therefore, we may want to place the blog vm on physical hardware that is
 not shared with too many other core services, so they don't end up
 impacted by an application-level ddos that is aimed at choking out disk
 bandwidth through mysql, for example.
