My 4MB Sun 3/50 has had no problems maintaining a SLIP connection at 38400. 
(Call me crazy, but I even NFS mounted the kernel sources over SLIP (the Sun 
was null-modem connected to my Amiga 3000) and compiled up a new kernel for 
the Sun.  38400 is a tad slow for a kernel compile, but hey, it worked fine :->
