I did this for a while. However, after subscribing to several groups, there was constant disk activity and it ate network bandwidth. After two months I’ve stopped my server and went back to using a public instance.
I didn’t notice any big drops in network or CPU performance. Usually, because other network traffic had priority. But my server’s HDD constantly rattling along got me thinking that it wasn’t worth it. There are several other containers running on that box and I don’t have that much HDD activity with them.

How intensive was it exactly?
