The issue of memory should not be a problem. If you run the absolute minimum amount of ram needed it might be a problem or if the addon were so insanely huge (or number of addons you run) that it maxed out system ram. In general it seems to only have an impact on load times when zoning.

That being said, being modular is always a nice option. While my initial statement is true Ive always been a big fan of disabling options i have no need for.

CPU cycles needed (efficiency) has a far greater impact on performance than memory footprint. As many authors have said its very possible to write an addon only a few kb in size that would cripple your system.
