Yes, probably not a lot, but why?
I'm having great difficulties imagining a a website where that much
libraries and functions are needed. Maybe it's time to include only files
that are actually needed?

It may be worth it to check the following url:

Having a database doesn't make a differnce.
Exactly HOW you query the database does.

Normalize and create proper indexes.-
