How much weight is too much?

I have 200 feet of Sterling 3/8 inch diameter Superstatic2 in a small PMI rope 
bag.  According to specs the rope weighs 8.4 lbs and the bag weighs 9 oz, so 
the total is 9 lbs.  The bag has a carrying handle, and at the top you just tie 
off the rope and toss the bag, which falls to the ground paying out rope behind 
it.

On some towers, water towers and buildings it's a real pain to bring the rope 
up.

I'm wondering if there's some sort of really light rope that would enable us to 
bring the whole thing up, drop it, and then pull up a real load rope.  My main 
concern would be weight and size of 200+ feet of even tiny rope.

Does anyone have any experience or suggestions?
