Yah, for sure. I stuck with the pre-WoW 3.0 ClosetGnome for quite a while due to its additional features; finally gave it up once the current version was stable.
The current ClosetGnome just provides more convenient access for switching equipment sets. Which...is good enough here

True, static memory is rarely an issue. Continual memory consumption--which prompts the built-in garbage collector to function at inopportune times--is far more of an issue. Outfitter (along with most mods) does not have this problem.
More important than memory usage in terms of frame rate/slowness/etc. is CPU usage. This is one area where Outfitter falls down. The current v5.0b8 (with default options selected) uses 0.370-0.450 CPU/second on idle (tested with
OptionHouse). Which is not particularly low for when you are not actually accessing a mod.
ClosetGnome use 0 CPU/second on idle (which includes the Ace3 library default usage).
Anyway, it all depends on your needs. The default equipment manager (+perhaps ClosetGnome for easy access) is more than sufficient for many people.
