I now think the differences I saw were spurious, perhaps due to some additionally running background process or whatever. Some such fluctuations could be observed, but the "best" runtimes in that application do indeed not seem to be affected by OMP_NUM_THREADS. Sorry for the noise there. The slowdowns of the previous message with Allin's script (e.g. --omp-threads=2 and OMP_NUM_THREADS=2) were much more drastic, however.
