The fact that you're maxing out at 50% CPU utilization has me
wondering -- are there really 64 CPUs here, or are there 32 CPUs with
"hyperthreading" technology (or something conceptually similar)?

These processors use an in-order execution engine and fill the bubbles in the pipelines with SMT (the non-marketing name for hyperthreading).
They are rather efficient at it though, moreso than Intel’s first stab at it. And Intel’s next generation chips hitting the streets in servers in less than a month, have it again.
