I was finally able to do this.  I turned off the Turbo-Boost in the
BIOS, and restarted everything.

My virtual machine is configured with 4 cpus and 10240 (10GB) of memory.

I got the same error today when compiling python in the virtual machine:

calcru: runtime went backwards from 48142872748812902 usec to 593237864 
usec for pid 73714 (make)
calcru: runtime went backwards from 48142872748812902 usec to 593157552 
usec for pid 73714 (make)

Looking at the console log, I also found the following on the console 
when it was booting:
calcru: runtime went backwards from 8023812124181248 usec to 979712 usec 
for pid 13 (geom)

So, disabling Turbo-Boost doesn't resolve the problem.
