I have a uniproc P3-800 system running 2.5.72, and time (from that
system's point of view) is racing ahead rapidly.

By "racing ahead rapidly", I mean this:

        % date ; sleep 60 ; date
        Thu Jun 19 09:04:29 PDT 2003
        Thu Jun 19 09:05:29 PDT 2003
        %

returns in 35 seconds (measured with my eyeballs and cheap wristwatch).

Has anyone else seen this?

Regards,
Andy
