I have to calculate the time required From a packet entry to a packet delivery.This time would provide me with the total time taken for the stack to run on the board.The total instructions could be divided by the time taken to get ips and henceforth mips.Please provide insight about the board that you are using?

I'm also using the same board. But I am clueless about how to proceed.

To paraphrase someone, there are MIPS and then there are MIPS. Since the PowerPC CPU is a RISC chip, one instruction there is not the same as one instruction on an Intel x86 CPU which is a CISC chip. Some people consider MIP as an acronym for Meaningless Indication of Performance. Sorry, but in my experience, the important thing is, is it fast enough?
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
