Amen..
The pool, or more specifically, Ask, needs to view the project with
the classic 80/20 view (The first 80% of the work takes 20% of the
effort, the last 20% takes the remaining 80%).
There is no need to try and solve that last 20%. Those that wish to
do so are not consumers of the pool; they are *in* the pool.
Scalability is a pressing problem, sub-second accuracy is not.

Most of the pool users use NTP to prevent their computer clock from

that do care can/will/should take the time to find a set of ntp
servers
that suits them.
Totally agree. Anybody that needs < 1 second accuracy needs more
than NTP we
can offer in reality.
