Regarding the comment that Sun advertises the 368i/250 as a 5 MIPS
machine: as a rule of thumb, all Sun MIPS figures starting around mid-1987
should be discounted by about 20-30%.  Run the integer benchmarks of your
choice on any Sun machine released since then, and see whether your
experience matches ours.
