The part about compiling from source seems dubious and not backed by any data. Modules being dynamically loaded. They should not affect performance when not loaded. As for memory, I also doubt there will be any difference. When compiling from source, you don't get automatic security updates from your distribution and you may break integration with the other parts of the distribution.
