Well, you can certainly do 5Gbit/sec on the (much older) Netscreen 5400 
hardware with M2 linecards - we have done so.

It's only a factor of two up, and they've had 6/7 years to get there. 
I'm assuming the 5600/5800 can do 10Gbit/sec (of basic firewalling - no 
deep inspection etc.) unless anyone has compelling evidence otherwise.
