That's a fact i've noticed at the start of developing Zen. Many hosting services are selling a huge large of webspace that many scripts aren't using efficiently. Because you can use it to improve frontend cache and increase loading speed (which can be a shame when loading from Imageshack ^^).

In fact, ZenTracker uses a lot of space for 2 reasons :
- it needs the framework and some external libs to run : less code, quick development
- it stores everything posted by users (even pictures) : served by my webserver with a long expiration cache, very fast to display torrent details and work with images (like javascript resizing).

In production, I'm using now around 9 GB (!!!) ^^ . Don't worry, you can disable this feature if you're running out of space
