Running I2P would require more storage than the status quo of not running it. They usually store torrents and or magnet links, not the files themselves. I don’t know how much overhead running I2P would be over and above running a tracker also?

Yes, those are not mutually exclusive. You have an account and the tracker binds the IP that downloads the torrent to a cookie or to a unique tracker announce url.

You might confuse I2P with Hyphanet (formerly Freenet), which is dedicated to anonymous storage. > I don’t know how much overhead running I2P would be over and above running a tracker also? The overhead will depend on whether you want to keep your tracker's IP hidden. If not, it should be minimal AFAIK.
