I still use PerformanceFu and love it (since it shows individual addon mem usage), and it also allows me to force a Garbage Collection with a click.

Increasing memory usage is a byproduct of running addons. The better the addon is coded, the less mem usage (generally). I routinely force a GC and it works out peachy. In fact, 2.3 will be changing the GC to be done far more frequently, which will help everyone. Option screens for addons will usually bump it up, so after you config something, do a GC. Hope that helps a bit.
