Default Thinking of a cam change

I'm beginning to wonder if my my current cam is too small for my setup.
I currently have a Comp 274XE cam with the following specs:
274/284(230-236) .519/.523 110LSA

I was thinking of going with the next size up 284XE cam:
284/296(240/246) .541/.544 110LSA

When I built my engine, I was worried about going too aggressive and I knew it's better to have a cam that's too small rather than too large so I went with the 274 cam.
In retrospect, I think I was too conservative on my cam selection.
What do you guys think?
