This shouldn't stop us(ehm the Gnus developers) from keeping eyes open
for memory leaks, memory hogging stuff that really ain't worth it?

I don't know much about the memoryhandling in emacs/gnus, but I think
you are talking about two different memory-hogs here:

1. Memory leaks (I think it is possible!), features that take a large
   hunk of memory, that they(the user/feature) might not need.

2. Feature 'leaks', simply more features, more memory.

I think this thread started with the first point, and Steven is
talking about the second?
