I was referring to the multicast punt rate limiters:

mls rate-limit multicast ipv4 ?
connected Rate limiting of multicast packets from directly connected source
  fib-miss    Rate limiting of fib-missed multicast packets
  igmp        Rate limiting of the IGMP protocol packets
  ip-options  rate limiting of multicast packets with ip options
  non-rpf     Rate limiting of non-rpf multicast packets
  partial     rate limiting of multicast packets during partial-SC state

I don't know what "mls ip cef rate-limit" does; my 6500/SXI box doesn't have it.

think would be a good value to use on a Sup 720? We'd like to set it
so that the CPU isn't overloaded so much that routing protocols drop
and we don't lose our SSH sessions. That way we can monitor it and
watch to see when the CPU drops back down to normal.

If you want to rate-limit unicast traffic hitting the CPU I would investigate CoPP. There's a lot of info on this in the list archives, and there are many reasons to prefer it to mls rate limiters for unicast traffic.
