It would be nice to add a simple "if collapsed do nothing, else show google ads" to the template.

Don't know if this is possible!!
The collapse function is done on the client side and the page already loaded so I doubt it will usefull.

If you have loading problem you can do the following to enhance your website speed.
1. Use sore css as file
2. Don't use too many blocks that's is calling the DB. If it is a must then use some of these block on somepages and others on other pages. E.g block1 will show on forums page block2 will show on threads and so on.
3.You can also use ajax to load blocks after page loads.
