Same thing here. This happened after the winter fest holiday popped up.
At the time
1. I had just had a holiday notification
2. I had a maid on the lot.
3. I had two children at school.
there was also a sim asleep at the time. (There were also other sims on the lot with him and they were awake)
Edit: So I woke up the sim and the speed issue fixed itself. Set him asleep and it went superspeed again.
So It appears that a holiday notification instigates this issue. Then the maid, children at school or a sim asleep even when other sims from the households are on the lot with them and awake will then make the time glitch. Weird.
