interrupts. In addition, even a running virtual machine can sometimes be late in delivering virtual timer interrupts. The virtual machine checks for pending virtual timer interrupts only at certain points, such as when the underlying hardware receives a physical timer interrupt. Many host operating systems do not provide a way for
