Most of my TYPO3 sites have no fe_users and do not use session info so 
if I understand correctly this 7 queries are not needed at all.

So the next question is obvious in this situation: can I turn off all 
the authentication/session queries without changing the TYPO3 source code?

I suppose this queries could be responsible for half of the time needed 
to accomplish simple task of getting the page from db cache.
