Hi Donna
I think the performance issue still applies without the navigation.
Building on Mitch's original point that "templates are the biggest
source of pain IMHO", if you're interested in performance, Anthony's
tool is really good for testing templates before you buy.

Steve

Actually, the link to the template is http://demo.yootheme.com/jul09/
http://demo.yootheme.com/index.php?show=jul09 contains the frame that
has the navigation through the various templates.

I'm not able to see that in practice unfortunately.
Do a quick scan of that template using Anthony's performance grader:
http://www.joomlaperformance.com/component/option,com_performance/Itemid,52/
Use their demo URL: http://demo.yootheme.com/index.php?show=jul09/
Much slower and heavier than they claim.
