Title:
  timer interrupts count in /proc/interrupts is updated very slowly and
  is very small

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  There is the result of "cat /proc/interrupts|grep timer" on my Ubuntu
  11.04 machine:

  0: 63 0 0 0 IO-APIC-edge timer
  LOC: 59 44 27 10 Local timer interrupts

  As one can see timer interrupts count is suspiciously small and is
  updated very slowly - it takes more than 30 seconds (or even more) for
  the value to be incremented. Though this do not cause any work or
  performance issues, this oddity is very disturbing.
