Try changing the timecounter. ok, so I dont know if it will help, but I disabled ACPI by putting hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" in my /boot/device.hints now I see kern.timecounter.choice: TSC(-100) i8254(0) dummy(-1000000) (in my dmesg at boot, I see Timecounter "i8254" frequency 1193182 Hz quality 0) im pretty sure the first and second items (TSC and one next to it) changed since I removed ACPI and I dont see those messages in my syslog anymore.. so I guess thats a good sign.
