It affects stability (sometimes VM hang because the clock interrupts don't work correctly) which is a big performace killer. Also for me stat clock was not running so there was no way to know what CPU load the VM has. > which kernel? I see it for sure on a 4.14 kernel. Guess more affected. -- :wq Claudio
