If I understand your question correctly, the answer is: it depends. You can model the cost of delivering your service and keep track of three types of cost: fixed, variable and marginal. Here is a really good video that explains these: https://youtu.be/bBQVaRnHqLs You might find an industry

James, curious to know... what size ISPs are they? In the last few years with the larger ones it has always been about lowering cost and increasing revenue, which throws the original idea of peering out the window (unless you are willing to pay). On Thu, May 21, 2015 at 4:52 AM, James Bensley

Since you are considering multiple options, I'd build a decision matrix. You can put down all the requirements, score each option, and then normalize it to give each a final score. After that you can calculate some other things such as throughput per dollar, etc.

Interesting! Knowing a pi costs approximately $35, then you need approximately $350 to get near an i5.. The smallest and cheapest desktop you can get that would have similar power is the Intel NUC with an i5 that goes for approximately $350. Power consumption of a NUC is about 5x that of the
