Trying to cut down on addon bloat

I'm trying to improve my computer's performance while running WoW, and I know some addons take a good chunk of it.
The ones I think might be the culprits are:
Auctioneerm
Cartographer (to be replaced with TomTom when 3.3 comes out)
DBM
Gatherer
Questhelper (to be removed when 3.3 comes out)
Recount
TBag
X-Perl
Are there any lightweight replacements to the addons mentioned (besides the two that will change with 3.3)?

Why do you need a questing addon if you're 80? Assuming you are 80 since you have DBM. If it's for leveling alts, get tourguide.

I have alts and 80s, QH was to gauge how difficult a quest would be (such as solo'ing the Pustulent Horrors and Colossi for their spines), and to help direct me to them. At this point, I don't care about difficulty, I just want to see where my objectives are (hence why I'm dropping it when 3.3 rolls around).

The quests are colored and marked by difficulty and number of players in the default UI.

Thank you for a completely informative yet completely irrelevant piece of info, pelf.

?
What did you mean, then?

Just because a quest is flagged as 5-man doesn't mean it isn't soloable (see the comments on Against the Giants quests). Hell, my paladin killed Iustus - QH pointed me towards it and, after a battle I felt was taking a while, I checked to see why.
Granted, with my 2-monitor setup, I can check Wowhead for any difficulty checks, but I prefer being able to see where I need to go on my own map.

The author downloads it and packages it, yes. I didn't mean it literally.
