You're right, actually; it has worse performance if you're updating 
your clocks frequently. If you're checking once a day (we just do it
as routine maintenance along with the nightly automated backup),
it's probably more efficient.

The point is that it's something you can put in right away until
you patch or upgrade to 4.3-RELEASE.
