How to render language dependent .rhtml templates?

I want to localize my website, and do so with minimal server load increase. Most of the texts comes from .rhtml templates, so I figure, if the application rendered .rhtml pages per language, it would be more efficient than going through a database / gettext calls for every sentence.

Any idea on how I can do that on a global site basis?

Of course, dynamically generated text will have to go through gettext or other string replacement system.

Thanks, Amir
