Seeing how much CPU and memory is using a single WordPress blog, i wonder how much it will cost to host half a billion WordPress blogs

My guess is it scales a lot more efficiently the more you add. Still probably costs a lot though.

Most of them probably get 0 visits or close to it.

I mean when I made one such blog, the default install did not have a single index in the database? Like even a small dataset took seconds to process.

People love to shit on PHP, and I also love to shit on WordPress, but performance was definitely possible to easily improve.
