Subject: Server
requirements?

I've been using Tor for a few days now, and
am wondering about the
dedicated server requirements. When I download
via the proxy, sometime
I'll get half-decent speeds, and sometimes it will
crawl along. I
understand this has to do with one of the connections
that I'm being
bounced through. Are there any connection requirements
that are
enforced to run a server? For example, the server must sit on
a minimum
5mbit connection, or something similar. Am I just being
greedy because
I'm used to higher speeds, or should I just deal with the fact
that I'm
being bounced through somebody's 960/128k DSL
connection?
