Wendell tests all kind of Epycs plotting speed in Bladebit
I don't have any epycs, but I've talked with many people who do, as well as some TR pro owners with 3000 and 5000 series, and we've tested a lot of things. https://github.com/Chia-Network/bladebit/discussions/228 describes some of the problems seen with epycs pretty well. We've also discussed using different nodes per socket settings, disabling some of the cores, manually using numactl and running bladebit with --no-numa and --no-cpu-affinity. So yes, I have some idea what I'm talking about, and your blanket statement that "bladebit doesn't use multithreading" is 100% incorrect.

Plotting "Suddenly" Nine Minutes Slower...
If you get your CPU-not-maxed-out problem solved, you might want to try a RHEL based distro (for Bladebit). As of a year ago RHEL was noticably faster with Bladebit. This thread had positive things to say about Rocky (RHEL 8 clone). Apparently Arch is another good candidate.
