Jun  8 09:51:26 r001 ntpd[23319]: adjusting local clock by 0.816038s

Note that the time shown is *not* the time being adjusted,
but the difference from true time.

I.e at first the offset is 0.87s and later it is only 0.81s so it is
slowly getting there.
Ok. Sorry to misunderstand the numbers.

I do some calculation in spreadsheet.
The skew is between -10.7 and 3.7 milliseconds/second.

The man page of adjtime says:
delta is positive, a larger increment than normal is used. The skew used to perform the correction is generally a fraction of one percent. Thus,

An average correction of 10.7 milliseconds in 1 seconds during 4 minutes is larger than a "fraction of one percent". I wonder if my understanding is correct, and why the skew is so fast.
And last question, is it a real problem ?

time: time in log file
adjusting: number in second in "adjusting by" message
unnamed column: delta in time and in off second
skew: speed of the correction.
