Found this all though a little out dated from 2010, the times are not

Miner IIs have a cycle time of 60 seconds a remove a base volume of 60 m^3 and can be mounted on any ship.

Strip Miner Is have a cycle time of 180 second and a base volume of 540 m^3 and can only be mounted on mining barges and exhumers.

Rokh going full out on mining will require you to empty the hold every 45 second or so.

Yeah battleships were good for mining back in the day, especially for combat pilots who didn't want to train mining barges but still wanted to make some AFK profits. That article is still obsolete though, battleship mining was rendered useless by the introduction of the much larger "ore holds" on mining barges and exhumers.
