Having used MG for some time now, I can say that building a blog in MG 3 would be quite simple and efficient as far as the AJAX/HTML side of things go. Personally, I wouldn't use any of the frameworks you mentioned including MG3 for any heavy usage of Flex services. I am sure plenty of people have made it work fine with all 3 frameworks but IMO the implementation when I last looked seemed "hackish" to me especially considering the availability of SWIZ.
I am interested in your project though in the standpoint to see the performance aspect of all 3 of the mentioned framewoks. Didn't the Litepost project do this already?
