Also some more discussion would be useful, e.g. you appear to be testing on different machines so the most important thing to understand is how, or whether, the hardware differs. You do link to the dmesgs, but it's hard to process this into a summary form whereas you presumably know the details. I am also unfamiliar with the benchmark itself, can you give me a pointer to the software? If it is doing disk I/O then you may be mostly measuring the speed of your disks, which is why the previous paragraph is so important to understand. Kris P.S. Also, making this available by http instead of https would be great, your SSL certificates are expired, unsigned and misconfigured so you have to go through 3 dialogue boxes to load the page.
