My understanding of the tor network is that exit nodes are the bottleneck.  
You can have legal problems if you run an exit node (a friend had his 
computers confiscated by the police a couple of years ago because of this).  
But non-exit relay nodes are less of an issue.  If we had a bittorrent type 
service that used tor hidden service ports then it would only use relay node 
bandwidth not exit node bandwidth.
