I looked at http://cookierun.wikia.com/wiki/Auto_Farming#Currently_Effective_Method

But it's only like 4.5 to 10k coins per run and 0 or 1 m-box depending on level-rng with Soda cookie for me. I still have to manually start&end the run. I also seem to get the bonus level on low life (so the good one) sometimes. But the total amount of coins gathered from this is not exactly... worthwhile when you need millions of coins.

Manual running involves that super annoying random-boost-(t)rolling. But I get 80-90k coins and 4 m-boxes. Even more if I wasn't so unlucky with the treasures and if I could run with the general and 3x mace. That's only 9 to 11 runs for 1 million coins which is a little over 1 hour (due to that stupid random-boost-rerolling).

Personally I find both the afk-farm and the manual-farm crappy and not exactly great game-design. The random boost-thing needs to be speed-up or even made instantly and the afk-farming needs to be nerfed into the ground.

Same problem when you are running for high-scores, you NEED that 25% slower energy drain. You gotta reroll until you get it for every run and it makes me go nuts.

Note that overall, it's worth spending a lot of rolls to get the "double-coins". I may lose like over a 100k coins so now and then. But overall on the long run it gives me more coins/hour.
