My experience with ntpd is that when you think something is going wrong and
you
edit the confguration and restart ntpd it will become worse every time. Bad
overshoots
happen, time wanders away from correct value instead of closing in, etc etc.
The only thing that helps is stop touching it and let it calm down by
itself.
Probably there are "correction" applied via adjtimex that ntpd no longer
knows about
after it is restarted, and when you do this a couple of times in a row the
situation
gets completely out of hand.

It can be good idea in such circumstances to delete the drift file as well.
