And if the system clock is running a bit slow it will miss many PPS. chronyd slews the clock up to 8.5, so you thn miss a lot of pulses. > Are you thinking of the other edge? ntpd disables collecting data on > the unused edge. I hope not. gpsd sure uses the information from both edges, if it can get it. But the bigger problem is the missed PPS. > > And a LOT more jitter. > > I think you have jumped from my theoretical description of 2 options > to an experiment with real data. What change did you make? Already discussed at great length on gpsd, and easily demonstrated with ntpshmmon. When you start missing edges your time quality degrades.
