If you are looking for good solution, I'm testing right now http://roundabove.com, running one exit node with exit rules provided fromÂhttps://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/ReducedExitPolicy. Tor's uptime is 11 days 12:00 hours, with 194 circuits open. I've sent 182.16 GB and received 178.18 GB.
Only what you need to do on your system is to set new hostnames in /etc/rc.local. I use servernames without logging from this this list http://wiki.opennicproject.org/Tier2 (France).

I am concerned if they will sustain Tor exits on the long term. If the
Tor relay will consume more bandwidth they might start shouting about
it since more virtual machines share a network port, and they will
want to maximize how many VMs they can assign to a port in order to
maximize profit. Not to mention if the relay will be under DDoS attack.
I share all these concerns and s'pose we'll find out eventually.
The Choopa (VULTR parent company) network infrastructure is fairly robust from what I gathered reading many many posts about the service on lowendtalk.com.
I saw many cheap cloud providers which claimed to support Tor, yet
after little time just when the relay was becoming popular and known
in the consensus, service terminated. Hope VULTR will not follow this way.
I think the VPS providers are more likely to fold in the face of pressure. Too big and they're likely gutless and/or compromised.
There's probably a sweet spot that's willing to "Throw down for freedom" somewhere in the middle. (Sonic.net for example)
I should have also mentioned in my previous post I put the following in /etc/tor/torrc
# Bandwidth and data caps
AccountingStart day 19:45 # calculate once a day at 7:45pm
AccountingMax 33 GBytes # 33GB X 30 days = 10GB shy of 1000GB/mo.
RelayBandwidthRate 3000 KBytes
RelayBandwidthBurst 3750 KBytes # allow higher bursts but maintain average
