Scratch that theory, that was just a transient. If anything it looks
like it is related to system load. When almost nothing was running on
the machine it worked fine. When I started up a Browser and an MUA the
problem occurred. This VM has 4 CPUs and 4Gb of memory and a load
average around 0.4 right now. I'm a bit perplexed.
