Actually, Plasma now consumes as much ram as XFCE. It's pretty lightweight tbh. It consumes around 400MB on boot while GNOME consumes 600MB.
But the thing is that memory consumption is not a good way of measurement software quality.
Not used RAM is wasted RAM. I prefer a software that consumes more ram but its more responsive and stable than the other way around.
Also, Linux is pretty good at managing it and keeping up the balance.
