Excellent point that is often overlooked. Be sure you compiled
optimized - i.e., "mpicc -O3" (or whatever O-level you want).
OMPI's wrapper compilers do NOT contain optimization flags.

optimization flags, etc. I don't understand how the results could be
different.
Are you saying the output of mpicc/mpif90 -show has the same
optimization flags? MPICH2 usually puts it's own optimization flags
into the wrappers.
