Hi, I'm new to I2P and wondering, if the network is growing or shrinking.

I have a small VPS that had little to do, so I run a router there. My router knows of 8,700 other routers (that's pretty constant).

Would this be a good measure to estimate on how big the network is?
Do you have a similar number of known routers?
And is the network growing or shrinking?

Thank you.

It seems to be growing according to the link sexy_peach provided, and I know from a piracy community that I am in that some vpns have been getting worse lately and a few pirates (myself included) have moved to i2p.
