    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">I have consulted someone that has a lot
      more experience at the sharp end of cloud than me and one of the
      things he suggested is to disable any NTP server you might be
      running in your VM image. The base/host machine will already be
      using NTP and, likely, it will disagree with the your NTP (configs
      will be different) and will thus cause a serious amount of time
      jitter, If you don't run NTP in your VM, then the image should
      just use the base machine clock. This *might* help as DBD is
      notoriously fickle about all sorts of things that it really
      shouldn't be concerned with or should handle properly itself,
      rather relying on the programmer to cope with things like
      explicitly closing the database. <br>
