The colocation isn’t cheap to say the least, and it only gives 5TB/month unless we want to pay more per month;
This may the largest logistical problem I've encountered when looking for dedicated servers intended to be exit nodes. For most providers, even expensive and powerful servers (16+ GB of RAM, 8+ cores) will come with 2-10 TB of monthly bandwidth. Because much cheaper servers can saturate a 100 Mbps link (IIRC) and thereby greatly exceed those limits, buying such packages just doesn't make sense. The additional bandwidth prices are usually strangely high, too. The pricing is often progressive - each additional terabyte costs more than the last.
If anyone knows of a good way of finding high-bandwidth budget dedicated servers (a search term or a list of providers, for example), please share. I expected there to be more of a market for this kind of thing than I've found.
