Nope. Standard plain Pentium IV of 2001 vintage, running at a "mere"
1800MHz.
My suspects are around these settings in the kernel:
Preemption Model (Voluntary Kernel Preemption (Desktop)) --->
Timer frequency (250 HZ) --->
I say that because others have said that they think it is something in the
kernel, and because the instants I saw that problem my firebird was pretty
busy redrawing a largish page with javascript. If the system is very busy
it may loose interrupts :-? Not really, and the fact would be reported in
the kernel log. Something else not attended to? I don't know enough.
