How do i check my hashrate?

Hint: use

time ~/zcash/src/zcash-cli zcbenchmark solveequihash 10

to run your benchmark so that you do not need to calculate the average time manually. The result will be something like

real    1m15.879s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.004s

where the first number is the real time taken. Divide 10 by this value (converted into seconds) and you have your hashrate in hashes per second. Of course the advantage to this method is that you can easily run 100 or 1000 loops to average out the run times.
