That really depends on your process characteristics. If your process is heavily doing floating point arithmetics, there would be a notable gain with a T2 (but not that much on a T1). If your process is I/O or memory bound, there should be no significant gain. If the process is CPU bound, you can expect it to run at least 8 times faster. If your process I/Os are introducing latencies that can be parallelized, you can expect it to run up to 64 times faster.
I'm assuming an 8 core, 8 thread per core CPU.

I know that Sun make s a version of Solaris for Sparc platforms and also an x86 (Intel/AMD) release of Solaris. Can an application that runs on Solaris/Sparc also run on a PC running the x86 release of Solaris? Would a different release be required or any re-compling of the application?

times(2) System Calls Manual times(2)
NAME
times - get process and child process times
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
fills the structure pointed to by buffer with time-accounting information. The structure defined in is as follows:
struct tms {
clock_t tms_utime; /* user time */
clock_t tms_stime; /* system time */"
clock_t tms_cutime; /* user time, children */
clock_t tms_cstime; /* system time, children */
};
This information comes from the calling process and each of its terminated child processes for which it has executed a or The times are in
units of 1/seconds, where is processor dependent. The value of can be queried using the function (see sysconf(2)).
is the CPU time used while executing instructions in the user space of the calling process.
is the CPU time used by the system on behalf of the calling process.
is the sum of the and of the child processes.
is the sum of the and of the child processes.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, returns the elapsed real time, in units of 1/of a second, since an arbitrary point in the past (such as system
start-up time). This point does not change from one invocation of to another. If fails, (clock_t) -1 is returned and is set to indicate
the error.
Remarks
has a granularity of one tick. Processes which run less than one tick may not register any value.
ERRORS
fails if buffer points to an illegal address. The reliable detection of this error is implementation dependent.
WARNINGS
Not all CPU time expended by system processes on behalf of a user process is counted in the system CPU time for that process.
