It would be a good idea, before things start getting critical. I did think 
of migrating stuff to, say, one of my websites, but its a good idea to 
reduce the size of the files. If you don't mind helping with the work I 
could make you a moderator. It would be a good idea to have more then one 
anyway, in case something happens to me.
