Well, the hardware is not the same.
The software too, might not be at the same update level, so I just
issued an apt-get update followed by an apt-get dist-upgrade.
I cannot test the results because I cannot reboot the machines now.

Well, it gives me a lot of differences in kworker/something, and
some difference in samba suite. And a big difference: one is
running Xorg. I think I'll disable it and see if it makes a
difference after next reboot...

Many thanks for your hints,
