This plan can work if GiveWell adjust their top charity as a function of incoming donations sufficiently fast. For example, if GiveWell have precomputed the marginal utility per dollar of each donation as a function of its budget and they have access to a continuously updated budget figure for each charity, they can create an automatically updated "top charities" page.
