“Conduit is a lightweight open-source server implementation of the Matrix Specification with a focus on easy setup and low system requirements. That means you can make your own Conduit setup in just a few minutes.”
I can vouch for the easy to setup part. Much better in that regard than Dendrite.
As for server resource use… that is relative. Compared to Synapse? Sure… but it is still a heavy piece of software compared to what it does. Also as with all Matrix homeservers: storage use increases over time and is largely out of the control of the server operator, which can lead to tricky situations.
That kinda implies they are wasting a lot of resources they could be otherwise saved. I think it’s more a case of Matrix server being inherently tricky to implement.
