Since both the configuration and the IB link bandwidth looked fine,
I'd suggest to measure lnet throughput by lnet selftest:

1. On both client and server: modprobe lnet_selftest
2. On the client:
export LST_SESSION=$$
lst new_session --timeo 100000 test
lst add_group s [EMAIL PROTECTED]
lst add_group c [EMAIL PROTECTED]
lst add_batch bw
lst add_test --batch bw --loop 500 --concurrency 8 --distribute 1:1 --from c 
--to s brw write size=1M
lst run bw
lst stat c
