Collector burn is fleet spend times GC share. The defaults model a $100,000 fleet at 25% GC share with a 30% overall cut: $30,000 a month back.

Every result is pre-rendered with the default inputs, so the numbers are readable with JavaScript off. Results update as you type and nothing leaves your browser. Part of the Buildopsy engineering calculators.
