Well I'm too busy/lazy to reboot at the moment, but I've reproduced
this behavior with the following:

watchdelta.py:
import time

last = time.time()
while 1:
t = time.time()
delta = t - last
if delta > .5:
print delta
last = t

$ nice -n 20 python watchdelta.py

At load=1 (the first several lines), this prints out messages
sporadically. At higher loads, every iteration is a >.5s delay. So
it's probably not particular to lguest at all.
