I'm thinking about running an IPv6 exit. I've found a Tor-friendly VPS provider, but they have metered bandwidth. And 500GB per month is about my limit. So I could have a 40Mbps/80Mbps exit that was up for maybe a week per month, or a much slower persistently stable exit.
For exits, speed is better than persistence, right?
Also, I can choose VPS in UK vs DE vs US. Which is needed most? And am I right that a DE exit will generate the least hassle?
Thanks.

There is no scientific answer to that, but I would say aim for at least 10 days per month.

Then, ideally avoid ISPs that already have a lot of guard or exit probability. Ideally you want to add more exit capacity where there is no guard probability, and the other way round, so an ISP does not see too much of both.
In terms of "hassle", it should stay the same no matter where the exit is. The ISPs upstream might react differently: depending on VPS provider they simply use IP addresses by varying providers instead of their own AS.
