Don't overestimate how accurate the monitoring system is.  There are lots of 
factors that can shift the accuracy by a few tens of ms from time to time.  If 
your server is in agreement with various well run servers (nearby and farther 
away) then trust that. 

The monitoring system isn't intended to be accurate to less than 10ms; indeed a 
server doesn't get penalized until it's about 100ms off (!)[1].  Use the graphs 
for general trends and such, but don't believe it's always 100% right.  It 
doesn't need to be to serve its purpose.



Ask 

[1] I am planning to change it to about 50ms, but that's still not that 
accurate.
