Sure it depends on the usage. Should the default favor the "common" case for domUs that are aware of a drift when using TSC and therefore use NTP, or should the default favor the other case of domUs that, intentionally or not, rely on emulation to reduce the expected drift? And if this has to become a knob, then v10 might be the way to go. Olaf
