Looks like I missed you in #ramble. I don't lurk it often, and haven't been at my desk much lately. I usually just idle in it 24/7.

#saltr is where it's at though. It gets active. It's I2P+ chat 'technically' but we all shoot the shit in there and talk about everything.

Just a small clarification: I2P+ doesn't require more bandwidth than stock I2P, though if you allocate I2P+ bandwidth, it will make more efficient use of it. That's particularly apparent on high bandwidth, high performance routers where I2P+ will quite happily push 8MB/s in both directions while hosting 14K participating tunnels.

Hell yeah. I'm always in IRC2P (#saltr) so I'll join right now. :)

edit: Can't connect to irc.coldhell.i2p:6667 after adding it to my addressbook. Will try the webchat for now. Probably an issue on my end or with my IRC client.

Would depend on your settings, really. I do 100% BW share and have optimized the settings (mainly just router.config, but wrapper.config as well for increase memory usage to serve more traffic).

Since I have a data cap at home with slow rural wireless, I'd have to do very limited sharing to make sure I don't hit any limits.

Obviously, resource use will vary depending on how you have your router configured. Stock I2P won't require near as much bandwidth as an optimized / tweaked I2P+ configuration will.

If you're setting up a remote router, such as one on a VPS, make sure your provider is cool with it first. If they allow Tor relays, chances are they'll be more than fine with I2P, just send them a message.

Both routers above are just VPSes with 1GB of RAM and fair-share to 1 CPU core each and they operate fine. Could push more traffic with more resources (RAM/CPU) but I'm content with things as they are now.
