How do you have suj on 8.3 ? Are you using a patch ? Also can you retest 9 with the following sysctl kern.timecounter.hardware=Acpi-fast Also in esxi what setup options do you have for the vm's ? Lastly do you have esxi setup to talk to a ntp server ? If so can you confirm that it's working ? I mean the esxi host not the vm . --- Mark saad | [email protected] _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
