You hit the nail right on the head. SMP configuration cause of issue. 

Thanks for your insight,

I think that's reflecting a problem on your SMP linux box.
The -0.00647091865539551 value means the time went backwards.
That might be a bug in the SMP kernel, or perhaps you have
ntp (or other time sync software) configured to step the clock
instead of using adjtime() to slide it.
