Page rendering seems faster for me after disabling RSS in Safari v. 2.0.3 (10.4.6). If you use another app for feeds (I use Thunderbird) or don't care for them, it might help.
Use an application like Safari Enhancer to enable Safari's Debug menu. Then launch Safari, go to the Debug menu, then select Turn Off RSS Support, and follow the instructions. Optionally, go to your bookmarks and select RSS feeds from the sidebar. Delete them, or copy them to an alternative RSS reader.
By the way, I also have disabled the favicon cache, and set page rendering speed to "fast" in Onyx, but it was this last change with RSS support that seems to have made the biggest difference.
[robg adds: I can't see much speed difference here, but since people seem to always be on the lookout for any possible tweak, here's another one to try. You can also enable the Debug menu without any third party software, as described in this hint.]
