As mentioned already, most of the difference you're seeing is simply
that your desktop system has faster individual processor cores in it, so
jobs where only a single core are being used are going to be faster on it.
The above isn't going to work very well either because the database
scale is too small, and you're not running the test for very long. The
things the bigger server is better at, you're not testing.
Since your smaller system has 2GB of RAM and the larger one 32GB, try
this instead:
pgbench -i -s 2000
pgbench -c 24 -T 60 -S
pgbench -c 24 -T 300
That will create a much larger database, run some simple SELECT-only
tests on it, and then run a write intensive one. Expect to see the
server system crush the results of the desktop here. Note that this
will take quite a while to run--the pgbench initialization step in
particular is going to take a good fraction of an hour or more, and then
the actual tests will run for 6 minutes after that. You can run more
tests after that without doing the initialization step again, but if you
run a lot of the write-heavy tests eventually performance will start to
degrade.
