Right-click on the perspective's name (in the list near the upper right corner of the screen), and pick Close. And if a perspective isn't listed there, it isn't open. > Also, in regards to the plugins, > is it worth 'disabling' the ones, I am not using in Help->Software > Updates-> 'Manage Configuration'?

The Eclipse guys went to great lengths to architect their system so that a plugin doesn't have to load into memory until the user takes some action related to that plugin; however, it still takes a little discipline on the part of the plugin author to make sure their plugin won't get loaded unnecessarily. - Mike Morearty, Flex Builder team
