Are there benchmarks for the time it takes to do PoW?
I ask because it sounds like you’re saying that the same level of difficulty would be a negligible delay for a bot on a fast server, but take an unacceptably long time for a human using a web browser.
In that case bots will have an advantage over many real users.
