Of course you would not have all of your penguins each talking to "a bunch of remote NTP servers." You just have one of them doing that. It then becomes a Stratum-3 time server and the rest of your penguins talk to it. You can also have your windows servers and desktops synch to your stratum 3 server and greatly reduce the utilization of your external network.
Works great! Less bandwidth!
That depends on what your requirements are. For human consumption things are probably fine, but for exact timing it may not work well. The NTP algorithms assume symmetrical delays which does not apply completely to Linux virtual machines dispatched on VM.
