If you set up a machine with a single VM just running ntpd, I'd be surprised if you can detect significant differences. However, if you set up a *single* machine with ntpd running on the bare metal and several heavy loaded(*) VM's that also run ntpd on the same machine, then I assume ntpd on the bare metal will perform better. (*) not network, but with regard to CPU, memory and disk access. I'm curious for your set up and results :-) Regards, Arnold _______________________________________________ pool mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/pool
