According to that web site they are 32 times faster than a dalek, and
produce compost in 30-60 days.

So a dalek takes 32-64 months to compost? I'm sure I've had stuff out in
less than 2 1/2 years.

I can not understand why there is always a need for speed in
everything these days. Surely a 2 or 3 year cycle for compose
is all that is require. Why would you want compost every month?


Volume of grass clippings and other materials - simple at that.

It's not the speed so much as the max throughput.



Yes, so you compost it quickly, then what are you going to do
with it?
