Name a UNIX variant in 1996 that ran on as many different

Solaris ran on x86, Sparc, and 680x0. IIRC it had been ported to other
platforms internally. Of course there are also embedded Unix's like QNX
that were ported to a multitude of platforms.
That said, portability is really a crappy metric for how much a software
platform stresses a memory subsystem. In a lot of cases it is more of a
measure of business strategies/deals/etc. than anything technological.
