Unfortunately I can't help you, but I observed the same problem on a GSX 3.2.1 on Linux.

The same for me, nothing helped. Also
kern.clockrate: { hz = 100, tick = 10000, profhz = 66, stathz = 13 }
did not solve the problem.

Yes, the difference is too big, even for a home brewed synchronization routine.
