Any other clues/things to try to find out why this is happening?

Here is the dmesg from Phoronix but they are using an i750 not an i870, 
the only differences that I can note are below:
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=intel_p55&num=3

Phoronix:
[ 0.468994] hpet0: at MMIO 0xfed00000, IRQs 2, 8, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 0

[ 0.472841] hpet: hpet2 irq 24 for MSI
[ 0.473257] hpet: hpet3 irq 25 for MSI
[ 0.477260] hpet: hpet4 irq 26 for MSI
[ 0.481251] hpet: hpet5 irq 27 for MSI

My host:
[    0.656054] hpet0: at MMIO 0xfed00000, IRQs 2, 8, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 0

[    0.660317] hpet: hpet5 irq 27 for MSI
[    0.661001] hpet: hpet6 irq 28 for MSI

Much of their dmesg is the same as mine with the exception of the of the 
problem I am reporting, what is the best way to debug this problem 
further?

Perhaps the Phoronix configuration does not have processor loaded in the 
kernel or as a module?

Again, the problem:
