But less than you might think. Locally, one LUG leader stands up a
Jitsi Meet instance occasionally for LUG use in a modest Qemu/KVM
virtual machine on a laptop that's on his residential ADSLv1.

When I was configuring the instance on Amazon EC2 for the New Zealand
Worldcon (Aug. 2020), I took a number of precautions against excessive
bandwidth draw, including setting the default to outbound video = off
for people joining conferences. That having been said, my main worry
was pegging RAM or CPU on the Jitsi Videobridge 2 component, that routes
all the video whizzing back and forth. As it turned out, RAM & CPU
usage as recorded on Zabbix remained quite low.

I'll also mention that each connected user's video link automatically
will step down resolution/framerate to reflect how much bandwidth is
available.
