mCaptcha relies on a
|
||
|
|
[proof-of-work(PoW)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_work)
|
||
|
|
mechanism to guard against bots. In order for this to be effective, the
|
||
|
|
difficulty factor should be configured properly. If the difficulty
|
||
|
|
factor is too high all the time, it will inconvenience the users and if
|
||
|
|
it's too low during attack, the defence will be weak.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
So we are conducting a survey to gather performance benchmarks from
|
||
|
|
various devices and browsers. The data collected from the survey will be made
|
||
|
|
public, we believe it will guide sysadmins configure difficulty factor
|
||
|
|
properly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are interested in the lucky draw, please save the `submission ID` and the `proof` will be presented
|
||
|
|
to you at the end of the survey.
