Hi Guys,
Ok it is set, it does seem a little better, the clocks are still running
ahead by an average of about 30-40 seconds, but they seem to have slowed
down enough for ntpd to maintain the time by slewing, instead of
stepping. I did get a fresh batch of calcru errors from one of the
servers right after reboot (possibly because I am setting
kern.timecounter.hardware in sysctl.conf instead of loader.conf). I will
let you know how it looks after it has run for an hour or two.
I tried TSC instead of i8254 on a third server, it was better than
ACPI-safe, but much worse than i8254.
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Guys,
Thanks for kern.hz suggestion, but according loader.conf in the
/boot/defaults directory, kern.hz is already set to 100, is this overridden
somewhere else?
Thats a bit misleading, the commented out value isnt actually the
default. Set it in the loader.conf, can verify this with 'sysctl kern.hz'
