Bill Bradford
Florian Schlaich
Joe Fletcher
Hoang Nguyen
Ivan Kovalev

And the solution for my "easy" question was:

Try:
/usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/prtdiag -v
and look at the CPU section, viz:

========================= CPUs =========================
Run Ecache CPU CPU
Brd CPU Module   MHz    MB    Impl. Mask
--- --- ------- ----- ------ ------ ----
  0   0     0     300    0.5    12    1.2

In the case of my desktop, its a 300Mhz/512KB cache system.

My original question was:
