Summary: Clock speed in FreeBSD

Initial Comment:
I use KVM 88 and KVM 85 on Gentoo GNU/Linux 2.6.29, running on Intel Core2 CPU 6320 and Intel Xeon CPU E5405, both in 64 bits mode.
All gests running on FreeBSD 7.1-p5 in 64 bits with -smp 1. The first machine host only one gest.

The "sleep" command on FreeBSD does not work has expected. All sleep time are multiplied by 3

Example :

 freebsdmachine ~ # time sleep 1
real	0m3.148s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m0.002s

freebsdmachine ~ # time sleep 10
real	0m31.429s
user	0m0.009s
sys	0m0.002s

With the "-no-kvm" flag, the "sleep" command works has expected.

Message:
Seems like there's a bug in one of the emulated timers. I worked around it
with the Fedora 11 version of kvm by using the -no-kvm-irqchip flag.
