kernel has nothing to do with speed...
a newer machine on a old kernel will still be faster than an old machine with a newer kernel.

5.8 - sun OS
108528-15 - kernel patch level.. its up to 29 if i'm correct
sun4u sparc - architecture
UltraAX-i2 - machine base model
i suggest you use the /usr/platform/<model>/sbin/prtdiag
that'll clearly show you why host1 is faster than host2
