Re: [tor-talk] New site attempting to help Tor grow



Had bad experience with D.O. running $5 relay at sgp1 region. When  
using RelayBandwidthRate with 100 KB VPS always freezed. Like 10 times  
a day.
Crashes only stopped after RelayBandwidthRate was set to 50 KB.

Maybe the problem was with my hypervisor, but i am switching from them.

I have several 5 TB a month for $12usd a year.
Are there reasons I don't know of that makes the higher rate necessary?

I went with DigitalOcean because their API is what allows the  
provisioning process to be automated which means less time spent by  
humans setting things up. The only way this was going to work for me  
is if the basic ordering process was 100% automated with me only  
tending to the one-offs or odd failures. DigitalOcean charges $5 per  
month for their base VPS (https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/)  
which is where the $60 a year comes from.
Using a VPS provider that requires a manual order each time as well  
as manual setup of the Tor client (even if using something like salt  
or ansible you still need to run a command) just didn't make sense  
for a side project.
I appreciate all of the feedback but it seems as if this project  
doesn't make sense yet so I'll probably shut it down and put it on  
the self until a better solution can be determined (if at all).
