Just did that. Run qemu process bound to CPU 1 (taskset 1 qemu ...).
Run busy loop on the same CPU (taskset 1 bash -c "while true; do x='x'; done")
Run disk test utility as before inside a guest. After 40 minutes time
drift is almost 1 minute, but the drift was not gradual i.e I observed
gradual drift of 1 second per ~6 minutest, but sometimes there were jumps
of ~10 seconds.
