I disagree; 10 pounds worth of holes is very drastic. We've never been able to lose more than 2 lbs just by swiss-cheesing. Since some of the materials in the pictures look like they are overly heavy, maybe the holes could add up to 4 or 5 pounds.
I would look for structural parts that don't need to be so heavy-duty. Such as C-channel or 80-20 that could be replaced with angle bar, or solid 1/4" plastic or plywood that could be thinner or corrugated.
