According to your number of miners, you should split it by equal, for example, on 2 miners, 2core sfor one, and 2 for the other, on 3 miners, one core/thread for each, and keep one for separate usage.

Codename: HighFlyer, specs:  CPU: i5 2500k cooled by a H70ish(2 rad)   Mobo: MSI MPower Z77   GPUs: Gigabyte GTX 660 OC 1150 MHZ core, 3150 memory both   RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16G @1600mhz   SSD: ADATA Premier Pro sx900 / HDD Seagate Barracuda 1TB/Samsung 1TB   Power supply: Corsair RM650 80+ Gold   Case Corsair Carbide 500R   5.4 ghz achieved on the good old 2500k, may it rest in peace. Current daily OC is 4.8 @1.41 v

What if I only have 1 miner?

Give it half of your total cores, mining on the CPU is useless, producing 1megahash.
