Boy, you guys are really making me read a lot. I'm digesting Wiki right
now.
I see tau, but does identifying a tau of 1E-14 allow you to say you are
locked to 10fs? The smallest tau I've seen in my E1938 collection is 1E-1.

tau is the time over which the measurement is made, typically 1 second
or greater.
loosely speaking, the 1e-14 is the average fractional deviation of
frequency over that time period.
