Hello everybody, complete coin newb here.  I have minerd up and running, it was actually pretty easy to do.  I'm currently running the sha256d and getting @ 5000 khash/s.  When I ran scrypt I was getting @ 5 khash/s.  This is 1 core of an AMD A6-6400K APU.

The sha256 has been running for an hour or so now with no shares.  When I tried the scrypt for 20 minutes or so, I actually got a share and now have a whopping 0.0000000277567232 reward.   My question is:  Should I keep running the sha256 since it's doing more hashes, or should I run scrypt and hope I keep getting shares?

edit:  sorry, this was supposed to be a reply in another thread, but the board timed out while posting.
