I have 5 dual xeon E5-2690 (2x 20MB so 40MB cache total) running Ubuntu and wanted to give mining a shot. (have free electricity)
I tried monero and get close to 1,000h/s from each server running 20 threads each for a total of 5,000h/s from all servers. Is that good?
Tried xmrig and stak-cpu with same results (large pages enabled)
Am i better off mining a different coin like zcash or Aeon?

Thank you for any suggestions
my 2cents but if your planning to mine xmr a single vega pulls 1500-2000 hs cryptonight algo, so with the network difficulty i'd join the gravy train and utilize those pci x lanes
