That is what I thought > Why do you believe that doing so would > be a wise use of scarce resources? I don't understand your question. The -g option will make the clock skip to the server time if it is off by a large amount. We build embedded systems that are shipped around the world. They include an ntp client that will synchronize with a server. If the internal clock is way off, NTP simply dies if -g is not used. With -g the startup does one jump and from there, continues with clockskew. How does this hamper my resources?
