I don't have a V4 system handy, but when I set throttling as you describe, my
V10 system definitely does not correctly track time.
I don't know if wall clock time tracking is supposed to work when throttling is
set.
On the other hand, when I don't throttle and set idling enabled, the system
tracks time correctly. I can't think of a reason why V4 would work
differently. You might post your config settings.
