[tor-relays] Running on a Raspberry Pi

I'm reconfiguring things and decided to move a relay from an old laptop to a 
Raspberry Pi.  I tried it on a Pi Zero W, which is very cheap but also pretty 
slow, and it just didn't work.  Now I'm trying it on a Pi Four (which has four 
CPUs and two gigs of RAM) and so far it's working, though it's not moving as 
much traffic as on the laptop.  There I was doing about 25 gigs a day, and so 
far now I'm doing about four or five with the same configuration.

Anyone else running a relay on a Pi?  It's cheap and pretty easy to set up, even 
if it turns out not to be an enormous contribution to the network.
