If anyone has a notion, try running Daggerfall, I haven't been able to get the versions I found working.

Stuff that's running well enough with sound at somewhere between 3000-4500 cycles:
Dark Sun 1
Archon
Zorro
This stuff needs more cycles, say 5000-12000.
Betrayal at Krondor
Space Quest 6
Crusader:No Remorse
Ultima Underworld

This is all with Ragnarok. Rapture@600MHz is a bit slower and Sonnet quite a bit slower . Apocalypse seems to run most of the above well enough, full framerate with SB1 music and sound. Monkey Island 1 at about 12000 cycles seems good, Doom at 9000 cycles and some later Sierra stuff at about 5500 cycles.

Though Sonnet will run a lot of stuff at 3000 cycles, this seems to be the floor where below that games just don't have enough CPU cycles or if the CPU can't keep up with the sound, it's not an enjoyable experience.
