    Just to add another data point - I am also
 seeing this on a dual Pentium Pro system with
 an Intel Orion chipset. Typically after a few
 hours use the system generates these messages
 at the rate of several per second. Performance
 is severely degraded, and the system clock 
 runs slow.
 
    Changing kern.timecounter.method does not
 help, and I cannot use kern.timecounter.hardware=TSC
 on this system. I have taken apm out of the
 kernel also.
