Remove the add-on packages that you didn't want?
That would solve the immediate problem, but what I really like is to have the packages available to load on command, but not to load automatically on Emacs startup.
That's pretty much what those files are for.
Presumably this is a fairly slow machine? I find GNU Emacs 21 starts up in under a second even with about twenty such files - certainly quickly enough that I don't care about the wait. (It may help that I generally leave it running for a long time rather than constantly restarting it.)
