[tor-dev] running a BWauth

I am considering starting up a passive BWauth in order to understand how they work and fix bugs.

What is the minimum and ideal hardware configuration for a BWauth?

Have my eye on an OVH config with unmetered 1G, a fuzzy promise of 500mbps minimum bandwidth and a 3.4GHz 4core/8thread AES-NI CPU: http://ark.intel.com/products/80910

The server could be turned up in any of their facilities: https://www.ovh.com/us/about-us/datacenters.xml

Or is 10G a requirement? (out of my league)

Is all code here

https://gitweb.torproject.org/torflow.git/tree/NetworkScanners/BwAuthority

or is there more? Are uncommitted fixes lying around anywhere?

Thanks
