Is this anything to do with one of the multi-core

forget which one, where changing processor clock rate for power saving
reasons could cause the TSC registers on each core to drift appart?
The computer in question is a hyperthreaded Intel something. It
shows up as having two CPUs, even though it's really only got one.
The problem has not reappeared after that one reboot.
Last night I opened the case and cleaned out a lot of dust. The
processor heat sink was maybe half blocked from dust. The machine is
quieter now that it's clean.
TTFN....
