You may want to start here:

        xen-tarball-upacked-here/docs/misc/tscmode.txt

I'm not sure there's a silver-bullet solution, but that README is a very 
detailed description of high-performance timekeeping that discusses hardware 
caps, migration, and application time-sensitivity.

Once you're familiar with all that, then there will be questions about how your 
preferred synchronization mechanism (NTP?) interacts with the mechanisms 
discussed in the TSC README.
