For those who run a RTEMS 4.12 single processor application with LIBBSD, what 
percentage of time does your application spend in the timer server task?  My 
NXP LPC3250 application spends about 13% of the processor time processing the 
timer server.  Most of that time is spent processing LIBBSD's kernel callouts.  
I am wondering if there is an advantage to only call the FreeBSD's 
callout_process() function when we know a callout needs to be processed.  This 
would reduce the number of RTEMS timer fires (which currently fire every tick).
