Humm... This concerns me a bit. What happens if the clock is changed while SAPDB is running? Is there any chance that a clock correction (fast clock set back 20 seconds every 12 hours) could cause problems?

It seems to be the hibernate mode then... If hibernation is turned on, the CPU timer register seems to be spontanously resetted during wakeup. This confuses time measurement function, which does not expect to have entered the dispatcher function after leaving it... This does not have an effect both on 'PERFCNTR' and 'TICKS' setting of HIRES_TIMER_TYPE. So if you decide to allow hibernation of your laptop you definitly have to modify the parameter.
