Yes, that's another TODO item.
I'm surprised by your numbers though. I have a server that's in the
pool.ntp.org zone constantly and it's getting less than 1000rps (or it
was last I was looking...)
The numbers mentioned on the pool pages are true assuming a ~5 minute
average is used. I was curious about a structure of this "standard" peaks. A
few examples with 1 minute average or even 1 second average are located
here: http://lx.ujf.cas.cz/ntp-lx/spikes . The utmost I've seen so far -
1080 requests during one single second. Such extrema occur sometimes but
always precisely at a full hour, probably due to a large number of ntpdate
or sntp users with their periodic jobs.
