I hope it will make Windows use TSC instead, but you can't be sure

Whatever it does now it eates more CPU has almost equal
number of exits and throughput is about the same (15MB/s).
If pmtimer is at 0xb008 it still reads it like hell.
I checked with bcedit /v that useplatformclock is set to "No".
Yeah, today I noticed that it is likely virtio drivers that hammer
on PM timer (at least rip of the instruction that access it is
very close to rip of the instruction that access virtio pio).
Vadim, Windows driver developer, is CCed.
Ok, I will switch to IDE and e1000 to confirm this? Or does it not
make sense?
It make perfect sense! Please try it.
~10MB/s. still a lot of 0xb008 reads.
