I have thought about this before. It seems that the free relay is unsustainable. It's hard for the runners to go on working If they cannot cover the expenses. #[0]

Why not spend less time begging and more time programming? More relays, and more intelligent filtering on the relays, would cut down the workload.

When you make the gossip model a reality in Amethyst, the need for huge relays will be a thing of the past. Looking forward to zap that.
