well, now i've got another problem...
i'm gettting strange time behaviour in the virtual machine.
(as before, this is under VMWare 2.0.5, latest plan 9 ISO)

time goes much faster than it should,
and the VM hangs up for approx 7 seconds
every 40 seconds or so. after a hangup, system
time proceeds even faster for a little while,
before settling down again.

i've attached a pdf graph of the behaviour
(times in seconds, real time on the x-axis, system time on
the y-axis, data points generated by looping alternating
reading /dev/time and sleep(1000)). the
blank spots in the graph are where the system
was hung up unresponsive, not even the mouse cursor
moves.

anyone got any idea what might be going on here?
