One thing you could do would be to set: kern.timecounter.choice=3DTSC kern.timecounter.smp_tsc=3D1 which is usually an optimization on the machines where the hardware supports it. I'd be interested in measuring and optimizing for this workload but I have no idea how to set it up (my time is also limited for the next few weeks). If you're interested in e.g. giving me access to your test setup then we could try to work something out.
