# Time-saving calculation **Manual Compounding Time:** For each compounding process, it involves two steps: * Claiming rewards * Staking rewards to validators Both of these steps takes ***\~3 minutes*** to complete manually. **Auto-Compounding Time:** When using Evia's Auto-Compounding Vaults, the entire process is automated. Therefore, the time required for each compounding transaction is ***zero*** compared to manual efforts. **Frequency of Auto-Compounding:** The number of compounding transactions executed per day is determined by the frequency settings of the Evia Auto-Compounding Vaults. Let's denote this frequency as `F` transactions per day. **Hence, Total Time Saved per Day:** Total time saved per day = Time saved per transaction × Frequency of auto-compounding ``` = 3 minutes × F transactions = 3F minutes ``` To convert this into hours: Total time saved per day (in hours) = (3F minutes) / 60 *** **Example:** Let's consider an Evia Auto-Compounding Vault with a frequency setting of 6 transactions per day (`F = 6`). Total time saved per day = (3 × 6) / 60 = 18 / 60 = 0.3 hours Therefore, by utilizing Evia Auto-Compounding Vaults with a frequency of 6 transactions per day, users can save approximately 0.3 hours of manual compounding time each day. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
