Building a Debian template with -no-install-recommends (something like that) initially resulted in fewer packages, but installing required qubes packages pulled many of them back in. That way you start with the absolute minimum, and only add back in what you need. However, the delta between minimal and my custom template wasn't big enough for me to continue using/maintaining it.
