That is a pretty natural pattern, which has been evident to varying
degrees, from the very first Oncore-UT models.

Absent input from the manufacturer, you will have to measure it. 

What you are looking at is off-by-one events caused by mispredictions
of the clock-rate which straddle the "use this or next flank" threshold
of the PPS signal generator.

If you temperature cycle the GPS, these events will happen more often.

After (mis-correction) these events show up as spikes of almost one
clock-period outside the normal band, at the "towers" of the "hanging
brides".

In other words:  Standard deviations and variances is not the right
tool, you are looking for outliers at a quite distinct distance
(+/-) from the mean.
