Gnome?!?!
That's like saying "all I needed was a couple of deck chairs, so I
bought the Queen Mary".
One step towards smaller/lighter would be the XFCE desktop instead of
Gnome. While a lot smaller/faster than Gnuome, XFCE is still far from
"minimal".
If you want more minimal, then I'd try icewm, fvwm, or blackbox/fluxbox.
