i think it is weird too, as far as i could mesure it, it took 60 seconds, here it is: cpu% date && sleep 60 && date Thu Aug 28 22:19:21 CET 2008 Thu Aug 28 22:20:22 CET 2008 cpu% My timezones are all set up to be CET (host and plan9 guest), the hardware clock is set to UTC. I am running vanilla 2.6.25 kernel, on a gentoo system. Thank you for helping debug this problem, is there any more info I can give to help this process?
