It looks as if you're routinely using 50GB of bandwidth a month, most of
which goes on the usage logs (?), the main screenshot, and the binaries.

It might be worth approaching Savannah to see if they mind hosting the
large, frequently used files, then moving the Wiki itself somewhere else
- finding a site willing to do that would be a lot easier once you've
cut your bandwidth by 80-90% (I checked and the top 10 files consume
about that much).

Can you explain a bit more about what YOG needs?  Which ports?  What
will be running on them?
