Scale computation is independent of the data, only the bbox and widht and
height are used.
Sorry I misled you with the first comment, I thought I was answering to
another thread.

Anyways, the comments about how the OGC compliant scale is computed are
still valid.
I suspect ArcGis is using a proper ground scale instead, which is indeed
different from the OGC one,
and it's probably also using a different target DPI.

There is nothing that can be done about that, you just have to accept the
scale dependencies will not work
exactly like you want on all client systems (or else modify GeoServer to
target the way a specific client system
computes the scale and break standard compliance)

Cheers
Andrea
