Questhelper was recently fixed so it no longer uses ~70mb but instead sits around the ~20mb mark. You can always turn off some of its features (eg. marching ants) to cut down on mem usuage.
I hope this won't come across as cheerleading, but I did all the things that reduce memory usage with QuestHelper and it still only got it down to ~20MB. Carbonite gives me much more usable questing data (such as shading the areas in the zone where a particular quest mob or item can be found instead of a single dot waypoint) and it sits at an average of about 6MB, plus I don't need TomTom and LightHeaded, which saves me a lot more memory. All told, I'm exceedingly pleased after switching to Carbonite about a month ago.

Note that I use the free Carbonite Quest addon, not the for-pay version.
thanks man, thats just the info i was looking for to make my decision. Think I'll stick with carbonite. And thanks to everyone else for the helpful info.
