changed the clock to TSC
As far as I know, it is unsafe to use TSC on SMP systems.
Or did that change recently?
It's only on certain systems, apparently.
Is there a list of systems where it is safe to use the TSC with SMP?
Or some script we can run?
Note that you have to enable a second sysctl to allow it to actually
use TSC on SMP, not just change the preferred timecounter.
