Backburner server only @ 50% cpu

Hey everyone, I have a weird thing going on with backburner and I was wondering if anyone's run into this or what the issue may be.

When I submit a backburner job, the manager/server pc runs @ 100% cpu, but my slave server only uses 50% of the cpu, so it takes twice as long as the manager PC to render frames (they are nearly identical PCs). When I submit the job, I set the priority to 100, but again, the slave server is only at 50%.

PCs:
Manager/Server:
Intel core 2 Quad 6600 2.4Ghz
8GB DDR2
NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GTS
Win7x64
Maya 2012 SP3

Slave server:
Intel core 2 Quad 6600 2.4Ghz
8GB DDR2
Sapphire Radeon HD 5770 Vapor-X
Win7x64
Maya 2012 SP3

Thanks for any advice
