You can also delete all the modules that you are not using, except for core. You can always download any others should you decide you need them.

I doubt that you would save a huge amount of space by deleting the modules\themes though.

The only benefit I've seen from not storing a lot of plugins and themes is that the plugins page loads much faster

I suppose technically u might also have a slightly more secure system in that if there is ever a vulnerability in one of the modules that if its not even on the disk then there's no chance of being affected.

I haven't noticed much of a difference in speed with the plugins page no matter how many are on the disk. Its not like its a page I go to that often. If it affected normal operating speed by having an uninstalled plugin that'd be different.

Haha. I not afraid of slow loading. My free web hosting gives 1.5gb space but allow only 6k files only. I limit by the number of files.
My actual gallery hosting not even 50% of memory space.
