After talking to PHK, he showed me that there was an interrupt problem (as reported by systat -vm): 15 cow Interrupts Proc:r p d s w Csw Trp Sys Int Sof Flt 9 zfod 272 total 1 59 13 74 150 91 1213 271 102 162 36496 wire 50 clk0 irq2 49788 act 64 rtc0 irq8 14.7%Sys 2.2%Intr 5.1%User 0.0%Nice 78.1%Idl 52696 inact 16 pci irq12 | | | | | | | | | | 369740 cache 142 pci irq11 =======+>>> 1292 free pci irq10 daefr sc0 irq1 Note "clk0" and "rtc0". This causes my clocks to never sync up with NTP, presumably because the clock is running really slow. It just sits there and does a step adjust every few minutes. If anyone is interested in more details, please contact me, and I will be happy to provide whatever is needed. ...
