The rate at which this machine is losing time is probably exceeding the ~50 seconds per day that NTPd is willing to correct without extreme measures (ie, it has to step time rather than drift-correct). You might help it maintain a more sane idea of time by using at least 4 timeservers. You might take a look at 'vmstat -i' and look out for an interrupt storm, but it's possible your hardware's clock is simply busted.
