E450 slow timer

Hi all -- We have an E450 here that has been relegated to utility tasks
(DHCP services, etc) that has recently started acting very odd. I noticed a
couple of weeks ago that cron was not running jobs on time. I finally got
around to looking into it and this one's got me scratching my head...

The system timer seems to be running about half speed. That is, when cron
does alarm(60) it actually takes almost 120 seconds for the alarm to go
off. I tried doing a "sleep 30" from the shell and, sure enough, it took
about 60 seconds to come back. Interestingly, the system time is spot on (it
gets synced to our other machines, but only a couple of times a day).

Anybody ever seen something like this? I looked through Sunsolve and didn't
see anything. This one has me stumped. Thanks!
