May it interfere with ntpd activity? I have those log lines in one chunk:
Feb 22 03:36:43 pobrecita ntpd[422]: time reset +0.622691 s
Feb 22 03:36:43 pobrecita ntpd[422]: kernel time sync disabled 2041
Feb 22 03:37:45 pobrecita kernel: calcru: runtime went backwards from 292542 usec to 292537 usec for pid 29 (pagezero)
