size of wrfbdy/wrfinput files varies in different HPCs

Hello,
Recently, I tried to generate wrfinput files on two different HPCs with the same WRF version, forcing data and namelist. I found that on one of the HPCs, the sizes of the generated wrfbdy and wrfinput files seem to be neraly two times larger than that generated in the other one, thus causing process killed during the real.exe process. Is there anyone know why? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Best,

I wonder whether WRF is compiled the same way in the two HPCs?
If you issue the command:

ncdump -h wrfinput_d01

can you get the same output for the two wrfinput files in different HPCs?

yes, the same info with files of different sizes on different HPCs.
Actually, I once happened to go through the real.exe successfully (on another real case) on this HPC occurring errors, and wrf.exe successfully, though cost a huge time (almost 30 min on wrfinput_d03). The lucky time never happens again.
Best,
