Unfortunately yes, but rather seldom these days. We just got a fresh
report about a larger IBM system suffering from it - while the initial report
they sent had hundreds of milliseconds in them, the most up-to-date
one we have shows that it's just a few milliseconds above the -10ms
boundary. So far I haven't been able to figure what causes this.
