How fast can it mine?

not sure, a few MH/s?  certainly not fast enough to make any sense at all

CPU mining became uneconomic over 3 years ago when the GPU software really got going

GPU mining became uneconomic over a year ago as the first FPGA solutions drove the difficulty up further

FPGAs are doorstops now because the bare metal custom ASICs are ripping the lid off



and you are still trying to mine with a CPU, I am sorry, it is pointless

here are a couple sites to look at
