That's pretty good... fast processor I guess (SMP too, which has gotta
help).
So the lesson is if you want any accuracy Linux 2.4 kernel or use
FreeBSD... although the parallel port stuff your site mentions sounds
interesting.

Tony,
Why should an SMP processor help? Doesn't it complicate the timekeeping
as there are two processor clocks to sync? OK, if you have a heavily
loaded system, it should increase the available CPU power, but for
accurate timekeeping you want to avoid a heavily loaded system! <G>
I do agree about FreeBSD being a good choice though.
