> Is there a way to see the 'best performers' of servers in the pool

Every so often, I look at the machines using my server and do a
'ntpq -c peers' on each of them to see what their other servers are and
how mine ranks (truechimer vs non-truechimer) against the others.

Only about 1 in 20 machiens responds to 'ntpq -c peers' so maybe the
results are not statistically significant (biased).  And of those 1 in
20, maybe half are only using me as a server so there's no comparison to
be done.

> better ones hold a preference in DNS

Am I correct that current DNS implementations don't rank the order
of preference of hosts for NTP?  At least not like MX records, where
there is a preference rank.  I haven't followed DNS development for a while.
