This server is spending about a third of its CPU cycles just checking the time! Measuring the speed of time Is there already a microbenchmark for os::javaTimeMillis()? In 2019 myself and others tested kvm-clock and found it was only about 20% slower than tsc. 30.14% in the middle of the flame graph. include <sys/time.h>
