The "entire Python" is never really loaded to begin with. The various modules/libraries that each script requires are imported by the interpreter at run time.
You certainly have the option to custom compile your own version of Python in order to leave out certain libraries/modules. But that's not really going to affect the overall resource/performance overhead (and runs the risk of leaving out something a plugin needs to run), it's just going to reduce the amount of disk-space Python takes up in your filesystem.
