I have been running xntpd for awhile now on some of my FreeBSD systems, and it seems that xntpd has to perform a step adjustment of about -0.14 sec approximately once an hour to stay in sync with a non-FreeBSD remote time source. This is an error of about 40ppm. On the other hand, other FreeBSD systems seem to stay in sync with a FreeBSD master with a stability of less than 1ppm. This would seem to indicate that there are still errors in the kernel timekeeping in FreeBSD. Are any currently known? - Gene
