That's another good point you've raised - "Intel core i5" is not a processor model, it's a brand that spans 4 generations and several performance brackets in each. It's impossible to answer the original question without knowing the particular model.

<p>I'm only getting 13 kh/s using minerd with intel i5 and the lowfeemining.org pool. Shouldn't I be getting a better hashrate?<img src="https://i.sstatic.net/xJKTw.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>

BTW I realize CPU mining like this is not competitive. Just trying it out.

SHA-256 and scrypt mining are completely different. Isracoin is based on scrypt. What are you comparing your hashrate to?

I tried quark first and was getting closer to 200 kh/s.

You can't compare numbers like that.

That's what I figured. I don't really have anything to compare to. That's why I asked here.

This number seems right to me based on my limited knowledge. However, you should know that Isracoin is a fork of the more popular Dogecoin and AFAIK uses the same hash function, so you might have better luck asking about that. (And, I also believe Dogecoinn uses the same hash function as the even more popular Litecoin).

"i5" is a very big family. Exactly what processor, speed, and number of cores are you using?

Assuming that IsraCoin uses the Scrypt-Hashing algorithm as suggested in the comments on the question, I found this [hardware overview table on Litecoin](https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparison#Intel) (which also uses Scrypt).

The table lists a number of `Intel Core i5` processors ranging in hashrate from **12 to 55 kHash/s**.  
I.e. depending on what processor you have exactly and whether IsraCoin uses the same hashing scheme as LiteCoin, it is within the expected performance.

Hash Rate for any coin depends on these parameters like

1. Coin Algorithm (Scrypt/SHA256d/x11)
2. Fork Coin ( Like forked from
3. litecoin/bitcoin) Coin is CPU/GPU based mining
4. Better Stratum Connection b/w your hardware(system) and Mining Pool
5. Network Bandwidth.
