A few months back I noticed several standalone libraries in my addon directory; Ace2, Ace3, LibRock-1.0 and a few others (each in its respective folder with the same name). Since I didn't manually install these, I can only guess they were side-installed with other addons, or by the MMOUI or Curse addon managers.
Do I need these standalone libraries to run addons dependent on them, or will each addon use its own self-contained library? Any pros/cons either way?
For example, I noticed that Ace2 and Ace3 are using 2 to 3MB each while they're loaded in-game. They're not using that many CPU cycles so I'm not too concerned about it, but if I don't need them I'd rather not load them.
Here's a link to a pastebin text copy of my addon list, if it helps anything... You'll see several other libraries in the "L" section (lib*):
