Bandwidth is 500GB up and down per month. Tor can have half of this (note the up *and* down).

note that this is a public relay with open directory port, but without obfusproxy. i can't tell how much overhead you will get from running OBFS (and how much idle time you get as a bridge). still, for the first month you might want to tune your BandwidthRates with 20% overhead in mind, just to be on the safe side.
