I'm not seeing quite as much stability on my Pi/setup - http://i.imgur.com/6L8ur.png is the munin-measured kernel offset for the last day. I've only been running it for a few days but I'd have thought the clock loop should've stabilized a bit more than it has at present. Could be that this particular GPS receiver isn't managing very well at all to give particularly precise PPS pulses, which is possible given it's a navigational receiver. The datasheet specifies a 60nsec accuracy but it's unclear if that relates to the 1PPS output. Once this one's been running for a few more days I should have some more interesting graphs; I'm getting one of my home boxes set up with Graphite so I can push more detailed statistics and information to that from the RPi about NTP etc and get a better feel for what's going on.
