A basic architecture question:

We're putting together a typical web app where non-logged in users reach a 
public-facing basic 'brochure' site, and then log in to reach the 'real' 
application. With such a setup, it makes no sense to be loading models for 
the public portion of the site, as it's just some semi-static pages and a 
login form. So I'm wondering 

   - a) Is there a way to prevent models loading at the request or 
   controller level?
   - b) Should the 'public' site be part of the same application at all, or 
   should it be a separate light-weight application with a login form that 
   then points to the 'real' application?
