I've observed a strange behavior of the system time. Under high CPU load,
the system times moves slower than usual. For example, after having
compiled system + xfree + kde + gnome (which took about a day), time had
lagged about half an hour. Under normal load, time works mostly as
expected, but I have to reset it after having done something intensive.

Is this an OS thing or a hardware thing? Any ideas what to do about it?  
NTPd whines about "exceeds saneness limit" when time has lagged too far,
but works as long as I don't do too long compiles. 

The system is: Athlon-xp 1800+ / Asus A7V333 / 1 gb mem
