Where is the software run? Is it on just a pc or laptop or does it require a server?
I'm running it on a heroku instance but I bet you could get away with running it on a pc. I do recommend using heroku, I'm using a paid dyno for 7 bucks a month but not even sure if that is necessary. Will find out after running it for a month. Do you happen to know system reqs @disregardfiat ?
I spin it up on my laptop before I commit changes, The state file is currently less than 100Kb, almost all of which is 24 hours of pertinent transaction feed. It's significantly slower trying to read blocks on my home internet connection.
This is light enough currently to run on just about anything. If you want to run it on your home computer or PC and there is a power or network failure that prevents execution of escrow transactions you may lose your collateral. But if you're technically savy enough to set up the Node.js environment you're good to go.
Nowhere near technically savvy enough to do much of anything.
Alas I will have to leave it to the experts. Hopefully a lot of others sign on to help out.
I will forward this on to those who I know have some technical expertise. Maybe they will jump on this.
