I run the compressor on a cron job. I've been running for 5 years with ~ a dozen people on my server, all federated, in multiple large rooms, didn't run into space issues until this year. On Linode $10 and then Hetzner 4 CPU.
One thing to watch out for: disable registration. Otherwise spambots will register accounts, join the largest matrix.org rooms to spam, and then you'll have to store all that crap for all those rooms.
- jeltz 3y agoI feel registration is something which should come disabled by default and need to be explicitly enabled.

- nani8ot 3y agoAt least on Conduit and Dendrite that is the case iirc, but it's easy to forget to disable it once you register an account.
- COGlory 3y agoIt may be. I setup my server half a decade ago and don't remember exactly how I configured it initially. I may have enabled it not realizing the implications.
