There is no point even starting to do a comparsion until you have defined your objectives. Is the only thing you care about is keeping the correct time over a LAN using your own servers? Or do you want to discipline the clock frequency and offset by using various servers over the Internet and providing time to other downstream clients over a WAN? Or something inbetween? If the former, then running ntpdate every minute might do the trick. If the latter, you will be hard pressed to find anything better than the NTP ref implementation from the University of Deleware. But unless you know what you are trying to achieve, you will not know if you have got it.
