Hey Sebastian,
well, the bottom line is also, that no matter how you slice & dice it,
you're basing the whole site on one image, so loading times are bound to stay higher than on other sites. What's very common ist to use background elements that are tileable, and tiny elements for corners, bars, and buttons, while using patterns or just solid colors for the background. That way you can use minimal imagery to create very appealing sites that load fast and also scale with the browser size..
Just my 2 cents

Hi Sebastian,
try XnView http://www.xnview.com
generates the smallest *.jpg in my opinion.
Ok, that's not a quick and dirty slice and go workflow.
For static webpages maybe try Homesite for HTML-Creation
Fireworks for animated Gifs, XnView for Jpeg.
