As ind has mentioned before, spaceworld isn't in the way of anything and doesn't take much processing power. It adds next to nothing to the backup time and in my opinion has potential to be interesting... if we figure out how to lead people to the kind of building it was made for.
It was made so people could build spacecraft and such like the Enterprise or some planets, what we got are cobble structures at glass level. Is it possible to stretch a warp back to the spaceworld spawn across what would normally be bedrock layers? That might prevent people from depending on the floor for their builds and also encourage more of floating designs in the middle of space.
Arenas
As for the arenas, is there a way to crowd them more so that the spawners from adjacent arenas aren't active but they leave more space for other builds? Effectively shove them all in a corner, even stack the ones open to the sky on top of the enclosed ones? Or would that make them all laggy when they're being used? I can rezone them if an admin moves them, it'd just take not using //expand vert while using a few clicks and /region redefine.

If you're planning something else, just ignore this suggestion xD but the rest of this post is more development on it.
Spawners aren't active outside 16 blocks radius. I suggest putting 20 blocks between the boundries of these arenas so we don't have to calculate exact distance. The 20 instead of 16 is to keep people outside from activating two arenas at once and it's easier to count than 16. Ghast, magma, skeleton, silverfish, blaze and slime would make a nice base to this shelf of arenas. Have the next layer level with each other, there's plenty of space going upward: creeper and spider spaced far apart. The next one be the rest except squid.
The squid arena has to be at a certain level for it to spawn correctly, not sure what to suggest with that one and I'm not sure if any others have that problem.
open air need light. simi-open would do better at the top, but doesn't need it. simi-closed can be below others, but has view of the outside. closed air should be under others.
Open air arenas: pig cow chicken squid(has to be at it's altitude) sheep(doesn't have spawners/sheep)
simi open air arenas: pigmen zombie
simi closed air arenas: slime spider creeper blaze
closed air arenas: magma ghast skeleton silverfish

Those who fight for justice must walk a narrow path, for those who complain about the injustice of the world usually end up being the ones committing those injustices later on.
