I did the same with my blog which is written in rust https://github.com/prabirshrestha/rblog. While it could be static I wanted it to be server. But I don't think rust is the reason for it. Not depending on external resources such as fonts and javascript for critical path along with compression is the most critical. Since it is a blog focus on text instead of fancy images and only include when absolutely necessary. Testing the site in Fast 3G or Slow 3G is the best way to find the places where you can optimize your site.
