It's helpful to have stable nodes in the network, especially ones 
without any NAT or a shifting IP address. However, running a 
bootstrap/tcp node would be better as it will properly advertise itself 
as being available to use for clients that are having trouble punching 
through say NAT, or needing to use tcp to connect.

My knowledge of this is out of date, but I ran one several months ago on 
a 20 dollar VPS and the data/cpu usage was minimal.
