Look at sysctl kern.timecounter; for example kern.timecounter.tick=1 kern.timecounter.timestepwarnings=0 kern.timecounter.hardware=acpitimer0 kern.timecounter.choice=i8254(0) acpitimer0(1000) dummy(-1000000) You can change kern.timecounter.hardware to one of the other values in kern.timecounter.choice and see if that works any better. It's not all that common but for example some machines seem to have problems with acpitimer and may work better with another choice.
