Hey all, I am running ntpd under Linux which defaults to using TSC for it's clocksource. I also have acpi_pm and hpet available to me and am wondering what the current best practice for ntpd is. The issue with TSC seems to be that the drift value differs every time I reboot so it goes pretty weird when ntpd first starts but then settles after a few hours. I get a stable drift with acpi_pm and hpet but from reading the kernel list, I understand using TSC is the most efficient way to go as there might be many gettimeofday() calls per second and you want those to be fast.
So just curious what others are doing here. Best, Shane _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
