Please double check the queries are arriving on both servers. What we have
seen in production is mediocre firewalls getting confused keeping track of
multiple identical questions.

Again, measure on server A and B directly if you haven't yet. This behaviour
again correlates with a bad firewall if you are measuring on the SBC side.
