So - you can get a twin core VPS with 2 Gig of RAM and 3500 gig of traffic allowance for less than $20.00 for a /year/. Spend a little more and you can get 8 gig of traffic.
3500 GB = 1750 GB for a Tor relay. Can be gone in 1-3 days. ;-) Traffic is always counted sum in + out You may have more fun on a bridge. If you run a relay first, don't use the IP later for a bridge!
20-30 MiB/s Tor Relay consumes about 40-50 TB of traffic per month a few weeks after the 14-day ramp-up phase.:-( That is why I am suspicious of some of the 50-90 MiB/s unnamed relays without contact. https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#search/unnamed%20type:relay%20
VPN or root server with 20-40 MiB/s unlimited traffic is available for EUR 15-30,-/month.
