Too much external javascript for EasyBlog

Hi! My name is Martin Andersen.
I have almost finished my Joomla Website, and i would like to upgrade the default Joomla Articles to EasyBlog, as it looks like a very nice blog component.
But im quite paranoid about performance, so ive ran Firebug and YSlow to your demo site to see what was loaded.
Ive found that up to 30 JS (283KB), 16 CSS (173KB)... Total 111 requests, 1.6MB and 19 seconds to load. Not very good results.

I know i can optimize, compress, merge and/or gzip all this, but my main concern: is all that resources of JS and CSS really needed for my blog?
There is any option in the back end to make it more lightweight? Some parts can be turned off? Specially "foundry" JS is consuming quite a lot!

I really like EasyBlog, but i cant compromise performance to much.
Hope you can answer me positively to be one of your next happy customers :)

Regards
Martin Andersen
