Hi @crokkon

Thank you for another contribution in this area, which is consistently a hot topic and of personal interest to me as well.

I really nice approach on solving this part of the puzzle, innovative stuff :D

Once the transactions are available, the public key of the signer can be extracted with beem's Signed_Transaction class. This takes a couple of 10ms per transaction on my machine. There are ~700k votes per day, so that's going into hours of computing time per day even in the optimal case.

Ouch - this helps with understanding as to the relatively small data-set, but I think 1 day is quiet reasonable in the circumstances.

This list is led by steemauto with 268k votes! This means that more than 40% of all votes (by number) on that day were done by steemauto.

Considering Steemvoter is an older service, and i think the first (perhaps Streemian is older?), and if we could include self-scripted vote automation, I would suggest the grand total of auto-votes to be easily over half of all daily votes.

So the total reward pool share is looking to be around 30-35% each day, at present. It doesn't seem to have grown too much, if at all, since your/@paulag's/my previous attempts to uncover this figure. That's hopefully something positive at least?

My one small gripe is that the Pies are not big enough :D

Cheers!
