A little while back I got a pretty powerful Sandy Bridge server to replace
an older Core 2 Quad and found out it ran SRCDS at worse performance than
the old crappy Core 2 Quad. Apparently the cause was CentOS' power
management not entirely supporting this new CPU and thus bouncing it
between the Turbo Boost Speed and 1.7 GHz.

Fixed the issue by recompiling the kernel with power management options
disabled.

I would recommend checking power saving options. Further thing to look into
is speedstep in the bios.
