What is LiveJournal (or others) doing to serve up these

dynamic generation (memcached, etc) so it doesn't hurt so bad, and
buying additional servers?

Many of us have sites with pages that can be mostly, but not entirely cached. Or sometimes the page can be entirely cached, but you need to run a bit of logic to figure out which variant of the page is to be served (etc etc). Doing it in the backend is much easier to scale than if you start adding too many smarts to perlbal.
