as per your previous stats, the ratio between expected and real local 
APIC timer IRQs is 3:250. So if your normal bootup takes 1 minute, you 
should be up and running in an hour or so :-/

you should be seeing similar symptoms when booting the x86 SMP kernel on 
that box. Or is the anomalously slow LOC count only an artifact of the 
hres tree?
