If your a gram weenie your are probably more concerned with comfort while moving than comfort while at camp. I personally like to set up a base camp and make day hikes from it. But I also like to move base camps if I am on a week or two outing. I like it ultra lite since I do not spend much time at the camp site. Most of my time at base camp is spent sleeping so that's where I will "spend" my grams... On my sleep setup.
Bulk is not an issue until it become uncomfortable to hike with or gets in the way.
