This is what cachetts can do. You can prerecord needed files and put them in-to voice folder. They would be used in the first order. Festival would only be invoked if there are new peaces, for example for street names. Making pronunciation of numbers is not so easy too, so the would be rendered by festival.
And you can encode these files to ogg too. If "extra decoders support" is installed they would work. My practice shows, that all missing phrases are cached in a short period of time and festival is invoked quite seldom.
