Yes, they will take up memory, but with apps smaller than 1MB I can't expect they'd use too much (likewise with processor cycles). With X's protected memory, if they crash it won't take the system down.
In the classic OS, you still use tons of extensions (they just are provided by Apple), sound is one of them.

:( The classic OS only needed you to put the sound in the startup items
folder (as long as it was a System 7 sound sfil format). Thou all of this is nice
to know about I may use at least one of these programs in the future.
However, they may take memory and work as extensions, I don't know how OSX structure
is, but they may cause problems as well. I think that with this and the
absence of other things that were convenient in the classic OS, OSX still has a
long way to go, I mean the only third party thing I'd depend on with 9.x was
FinderPop, everything else was readily available.
