The PIT is the programmable interval timer. Bochs's PIT modelw as written by
Greg Alexander. It has a real-time option that tries to keep the PIT in sync
with the host time. This feature is still experimental, but it may be useful
if you want to prevent Bochs from running too fast, for example a DOS video
game. Be aware that with the realtime pit option, your simulation will not be
repeatable; this can a problem if you are debugging.

equal to 1 is a special case which starts the virtual machine at the
current time of the simulator host.
