The website allows users who do not have bash on their own computer to obtain estimated Gridcoin performance data for their hardware.

This uses the same scripts as described in:

What does QuickMag do?

The program works by finding the top hosts on each project with the specified model of CPU/GPU.

The number of whitelisted projects is obtained from gridcoinstats.eu and used to determine how much total magnitude is allocated to each project. This number excludes greylisted projects, even if they are still included in the results of this script.

The RAC for the top hosts are then divided by the RAC for team gridcoin and multiplied by the total magnitude for the project. This gives the magnitude awarded to each of the top hosts.

QuickMag returns a list of magnitudes and not an average, because there is no easy way to handle the statistics. Depending on the popularity of the CPU/GPU model, there may only be one or two people working on a particular project. This and some other intricacies result in the mean values being misleading and that you should look for multiple hosts with similar performance.

About the website

QuickMag is now available online: http://quickmag.ml

This website essentially allows you to run QuickMag on the “server.”

First select whether you are calculating performance for a CPU or a GPU. Then enter the name of the CPU/GPU.

The CPU/GPU name follows the same formatting rules as the QuickMag script. Links to the example names are provided. Note that spaces need to be preserved, for example 'i7-6700' will return a mix of 'i7-6700 ' and 'i7-6700K' results.

Other Notes

There are a lot of improvements to be made to the website. It does not currently recycle results, it only updates the host data once a week, and it can only handle a few simultaneous calculations.

If you want to submit a bunch of requests, download the scripts and run it on your own machine, it will be much faster.
