I've made sure that timesync isn't running. My lguest time is about 3.5 hours ahead of host time. As for the load issue: The full cpu usage that I was seeing earlier actually stops after a several minutes. After booting, ^T^Tp shows genrandom as Running. Several minutes later the cpu usage drops to near idle, and genrandom goes to Wakeme. Then every now and then (I'm not sure if anything in particular triggers it, or if just randomly happens) I see the cpu usage jump again, and I can see that genrandom is once again Running. Then after several minutes it stops again. When genrandom is running, stats shows a load of around 3000. Otherwise, load is always around 2000. The problem looks similar to this: http://9fans.net/archive/2006/03/588 -- except that the lguest instance works fine while genrandom is running. Is this genrandom behavior anything out of the ordinary? Alex -- Alex Lee
