I thought that SF was a good middle-of-the-road solution.

While you might separate the website (as many larger SF-hosted
projects do), I would not encourage separating the CVS or
download areas.

What is your backup plan?  What is your redundancy plan?  These
are some of the critical background features that SF offers.
Sure, it has some downtime as well, but they offer a lot in
terms of the general system for dev management.  I would not be
so quick to dismiss it.  Moving the standard website hosting
off it isn't a bad idea though.
