Typically in the easier the mobs (less HP/Hits) the better the exp.
This is why generally speaking, old world zones are the best exp from 1-50s, and you only need to venture into Kunark in high 50s-60. Velious mobs on the whole have more HP and hit for more than equivalent level Kunark or Classic mobs. The ZEMs in Velious are rather lackluster as well.
You'll need to find some quotes from the era about soloing spiders and killing X spiders being a blue at level Y or something. It's tough to find specific evidence about EXP especially for grinding because there are so many factors. Level, group, racial exp penalty, most of those quotes give hourly rates which begs to question how fast/much are they killing?
