For the purpose of devfs, does it make sense to bump timestamps like

will bump timestamps for each operation but Debian don't.
First question is, what timecounter hardware is used. I would accept
some slowdown from hardware like HPET, but it is indeed surprising
if caused by TSC.
David Wolfskill suggested trying the problem commit with
vfs.timestamp_precision=0
and it does indeed restore performance to what it was. The raw dtrace
files are available and FlameGraphs can all be found at
