Is anyone starting to get a handle on how Mastodon / OSocial hosting requirements scale with use and time?

Traffic / bandwidth, storage, CPU, etc., with some sort of sense of by users, etc., would be interesting.

What's the users * days of a 1 TB storage capacity going to run? Any thoughts on addressing this as individual nodes start accumulating content?

Should content age out? That solves ... several problems.

@dredmorbius I'd not age out local content for several years at the very least (if ever), though federated stuff could probably be dropped after a shorter time, if the original server is still up.
