With idling enabled (or with neither idling nor throttling enabled), the simulated PDP11 CPU is running as fast as your host hardware can manage, whether this is as faster or slower than an original PDP 11/70 will depend on the speed of the host hardware. With throttling, the logic will attempt to enforce an upper limit on how fast it will actually execute instructions. The fact that when you enable throttling it seems to interfere with the delivery rate of simulated clock ticks is a bug. Please create an issue at https://github.com/simh/issues to report and track efforts to resolve this.
