Ok, Thanks Anthony. The default on my system was 250Hz.  Have changed that
and re-compiled the kernel. Will try out both and see what happens.

BTW, do we need timerfd in conjunction with the 1000hz timer set in the
kernel or is it either/or? As in does it affect positively or negatively if
we leave the kernel at 250Hz and enable timerfd as the timing source?

Thanks
