I decided to remove polling and hz=1200 from my kernel. The system was
slower. Things run pretty smooth now (duron-800/512Mb) with the default
HZ=100, /but/ :

Now vmware3 is complaining about the rtc : timing error, please
increase...
The virtual machine itself runs just fine. If it does no harm I want to
stick to the HZ=100. What does this rtc message mean and what are the
consequenses? An unstable system?
