I've noticed that, both when running ITS in an emulated PDP-10 as well as 32V in a VAX 780 on my GNU/Linux machine, the time in the emulator slowly drifts out of sync with real time. The emulator and host machine are sitting mostly idle. I thought perhaps the host machine wasn't powerful enough (a 2.5GHz Intel Core 2 Quad) so I moved everything over to an even faster 12-core Opteron but it seems to have made no difference. I tried adding set cpu idle=32V just to see and set the time & date correctly before going to bed last night. This morning I found it seems to have made no difference - It's off by about 11 minutes, so drifting be a little over a minute each hour. Suggestions?
