CLI tools The Cassandra systems were EC2 virtual machine (Xen) instances. Note that Ubuntu also has a frame to show entry into vDSO (virtual dynamic shared object). Microbenchmark os::javaTimeMillis() on both systems. Running this on the two systems saw similar results. Try changing the kernel clocksource.
