One of our compute nodes runs ~30% slower than others. It has the
exact same image so I am baffled why it is running slow . I have
tested OMP and MPI benchmarks. Everything runs slower. The cpu usage
goes to 2000%, so all looks normal there.
I thought it may have to do with cpu scaling, i.e when the kernel
changes the cpu speed depending on the workload. But we do not have
that enabled on these machines.
Here is a snippet from "cat /proc/cpuinfo". Everything is identical to
our other nodes. Any suggestions on what else to check? I have tried
rebooting it.
