Hi everyone,
I've been looking around for a new host for my Tor infrastructure, which includes exits, relays, and a bridge.
I've been reviewing https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/GoodBadISPs and ran across Pulse Servers, which seems Tor friendly. They have VPSs in Canada and the UK and have really low prices on VPSs, which I'm trying to understand. I've been trying to learn more but I think they have a pretty small setup (apparently the owner does tech support) and documentation is limited.
Does anyone have any experience or opinions on them?

They are very tor friendly, and I have had an exit there for a few months, but I would suggest that you look for an alternate host. The owner has expressed concern over the excessive bandwidth consumption versus cost of the relays and would probably not be particularly excited to have a new relay running.
I asked about running an exit there (though I currently only run a non-exit), and he said that I should buy a "Two" ($18/mon) and limit it to 100 Mbps (compared to the 1000 Mbps they advertise). I've run my non-exit there on a "One", limited to 100 Mbps and had no issue. I haven't tried running the non-exit at 1 Gbps. hope that helps.

I've been running my exit node at Pulse Servers since February 2015 and the provider is very Tor-friendly indeed, but perhaps is not the most cost effective. I'm paying to the "Two" ($18/month) plan and have never been contacted w/r/t any traffic/bandwidth issues.
