How long does it usually take to get substantial traffic to your blog, and what is everyone's favorite way to do it?

I've been blogging for about 3 weeks and I'm not at all satisfied with my traffic levels, though I'm doing everything I can to drive traffic.

I've got delicious, digg, furl - almost all the buttons available on my site for people to make my articles popular. I've got 2 types of RSS feeds and an ATOM feed available. I've submitted to a lot of search engines. I've optimized my site for the search engines as best I know how. I'm posting new content like crazy. I'm commenting on other blogs in the same genre.

How long does this process take? Am I expecting too much in such a short time?
