what is the output of:


 sudo cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource

and:

sudo cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource

I'm betting your current clocksource is tsc, which the kernel seems to
favor as default on some systems, but just doesn't keep track of time
all that well.
