Yes. numactl --physcpubind ... in my case. Linux has an optimization where it does not need to send an IPI when the client and server are scheduled on the same core. For single threaded ping-pong tasks like pgbench -c1, that can make a huge difference, particularly on larger CPUs. So you get a lot better performance when forcing things to be colocated.
