I'm running a clustered instance on two Linux VM's with 1G RAM and 2
CPU's on top of Linux/KVM hypervisors (each instance is on a different
physical VM server).    It works fine and has done so for a long time.

It's impossible to say what's going on without knowing what hypervisor
and guest you're using.  If it's KVM/Linux, you may try enabling the
paravirtual clock options in the guest kernel.     There are a
multitude of workarounds for clock problems in VM's and which one to
use depends entirely on your guest/hypervisor combination.

VMWare has a nice paper on the topic.
