FYI, I just discovered a VPS provider DigitalOcean, and they seem fine with people running non-exit nodes:

Thanks for the hint. In general, I don't see why VPS providers would not allow internal Tor relaying, and I would not even bother to ask first. Interesting values to know about VPS providers are bandwidth allowance ("unlimited" is quite obviously a marketing term; often, limits can only be discovered by some months of experience) and [socket/numfile] limitations. Support is often reluctant to provide such values before ordering. A good way to characterize VPS offers is to post the output of "cat /proc/user_beancounters".
