You also have to disable any dynamic frequency scaling features on the host CPU when running virtual machines. eg "Cool-n-Quiet", SpeedStep, PowerNow!, "Optimized Power Management"(Opterons) and whatever they call it on the new Intel chips. I once had a system running at double speed after the host clock changed post boot, the day just seemed to fly by.... Once that's off all that's really needed it so install the VMware tools and have them sync to the host, which of course syncs to a time server. You are syncing to an external time server, right?! :) Kevin P.S. this got offtopic...oh well ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
