Did you run a prtdiag on both boxes? Are the memory chips the same speed?

you say kernel configuration....you include memory paging parameters, flush cycles, etc?

Also, doubt this is it, but are the users and filesystems "identical" as well? including filesystem creation parameters?

I realize this is probably not the right palce for this put i have a puzzeling question

We have recently purchased a second server with the exact same hardware as our production server and are currently in the process of performing performance tests. Both servers have exactly the same the hardware configuration and exactly the same software configuration ( kernel configuration, patch levels).

and after running this simple loop that simply does a few basic mathmatic opertions, our production server does the loop in 40secs and our new server does the loop in 10secs. Does anyont konw what could cause such a drastic differnce in doing a simple math operation. and yes both tests were performed with no other users on the servers. this is the loop:

cnt=1
while [ $cnt -lt 10000 ]; do
let a=$cnt*785432/43243*7845+54
let cnt=$cnt+1
done
