Is your new server running i386 or x86_64 Linux?

If it's running x86_64, that's the problem.  Running i386 Linux allows
your CPU to use a “Virtual86” mode, while x86_64 Linux requires that the
whole thing be emulated in software which obviously takes more
horsepower and therefore runs more slowly.
