The attached patch is a bit of a shot in the dark, but maybe worth
testing.

Title:
  callbackRequestDelay not waiting for 1/60 sec on vxWorks

Status in EPICS Base:
  New

Bug description:
  The problem is documented in this tech-talk thread:
  https://epics.anl.gov/tech-talk/2020/msg00308.php

  In 7.0.3.1, but not in 7.0.3, callbackRequestDelay(1/60) results in
  100% CPU time, most of the time in cbHigh.

  This happens on vxWorks 6.9.4.1 and was first seen with the scaler
  record with multiple types of scaler hardware and device support.
