Unless you start building or other stuff in it it will get a little bigger.

Guys look at it like this, the nether is basically a normal spawned world accept for grass is nether rack, lava is water, etc. Also the nether has a lot less mobs than the over world plus, the over world is also infinite along with the nether (I don't know if the nether will be infinite in this update) so it really can't take that much
