I'm using the same stove (3 oz alum cat food can) with 15 3/16" dia holes in top and 10 bottom. (using Zen template)

Using one ounce of 190 proof grain alcohol, it boils 16 oz in 4.5 to 5 mins. Total burn time is 6.5 mins.

All this was recorded at around 3900'. Performance seemed to drop at 6500' but not sure how much as I didn't have a watch.
