Are you running the latest firmware?  The clockfrequency is indeed
_measured_ by the firmware and there used to be occasional but large
errors in that measurement.  I thought newer firmware doesn't have
this problem any longer.  So, if you're not running the latest version
yet, it might be worth to update the firmware.
