Any people who will use your relay on a circuit will also damn you to run such small relay. This is so slow and not usable for day to day web surfing, specially if you are well connected to Internet (fiber or decent ADSL). Personnally, I have around this speed directly for my ADSL Internet connection (500/80kB), and I rant each day I have to upload something… > 4.

A node need to maintain thousands of circuits. This consumes a lot of memory (400MB on one of my guard) and a lot of TCP sockets (14k sockets). Those parameters don’t scale very well if you have more nodes (65k TCP port only, or some hundred of GB of RAM). Currently, with standard hardware, seems we can’t host more than 10 or 20× more nodes than today without hitting some hardware limit.
