The most important thing is to set minpoll and maxpoll for the server
specified in ntp.conf. Generally, lower is better unless the network
load to the NTP server is a concern. With ntp-4.2.4 the allowed
minimum is 4, with 4.2.6 and it's 3.
This is not the official policy, which is that the defaults are about right.
Setting low values will result in excess jitter, because you will tend
to track the effects of varying network load, rather than smoothing them
out.
