No at this point, however people might be downloading large files.

It might make sense to have large files hosted outside of the app
container.

The way things are now, I might update the website during the day
every 15 minutes or so with a file or two, usually with a very minor
change. I wondering, do I have to save these up to avoid taking down
the server or doing something risky.

If they are JSPs, then I say go ahead and copy them in during the day.

If your app itself needs to restart, then save it up.

I often answer a question with a link. I compose the entry, or polish
the entry, upload then post the URL on a newsgroup. This gives the
illusion the answer was there already. I enjoy the imagined
puzzlement of the reader when the entry contains something so
precisely fitting the question. I sometimes get bawled out for my
laziness in answering with canned urls. Since people ask the same
questions over and over, I figure it makes sense to handle the
question once and for all on the website where others may find it
without even having to ask the question. I also like to use the
ability to format my responses with HTML rather than being constrained
to plain text.

It looks like the JSP I won't be able to keep doing that.

JSPs it is fine for the most part, maybe bounce the app every night on a
cron.
