It's impossible to tell you what is exactly happening without seeing the code.

However, you can notice that your first run takes 0 ms, of course the GFLOP/s show inf if you divide your number of FLOPs by (near) 0, probably the compiler can see that you are not using any of your computed values in your benchmark loop and optimizes away this part.

By the way, gcc/g++ also has a flag for compiling for the host micro-architecture, which is -march=native. While you only use the -mavx512f flag, the -march=native with gcc 12 on our Fritz nodes includes many more flags:
