Migration To New Hosts - Ubuntu 12.04 - Load Average/Performance

[rboyle23]

So I am starting to go crazy.  We are in process of migrating to new hardware, staying at the same ESXi level.  Right now we have a set of servers, Ubuntu 12.0.4, that are actually performing worse on the new hardware.  The servers were cold migrated so everything is the same.

From past expierences, anyone have anything they have dealt with like this.  I am really running into a brick wall and that new/faster hardware will actually perform worse.

Thanks

It turns out the BIOS option for "Power Profile" was set to balanced.  I changed this to Maximum Performance and that made the difference.

We are running HP servers and this was one thing that was overlooked.
