Likewise, I'm running a stock ASL node (50631) on a $5/month Linode, 
which is working great. I'm pretty sure all connected nodes are hamvoip 
distributions. While I have a Gigabit symmetric internet connection at 
my house, I feel better about putting a hub on a higher tear of service 
just because ISPs generally tend to peer better with data centers than 
home connections, regardless of how much available bandwidth they may have.

I keep a couple of nodes connected with the permanent connection method, 
no need for Cron jobs. If the connection drops, it will be 
re-established when things work again, at least this has been my experience.

I set a cron job to auto-connect from each repeater node to the hub every 30 minutes in case of a problem, most connects are done on the hub for distribution to my 220 and 440 repeaters and soon my 2 meter repeater. Echolink is ran on the hub also with the call kk4wh-r. It works well for a hub at places where you use a cell connection or can only have an outbound connection. I also think that the RPi hub that Doug mentioned is an excellent idea.
