It would be interesting to see what happens, for that, can you provide
us with a client log? See
http://doc.owncloud.org/desktop/1.7/troubleshooting.html#obtaining-the-client-log-file
on how to get it. Interesting is the log of the sync run that uploads or
downloads (what?) all your data again.

No, that is not the reason for sure. The NTP thing is history.

A general solution would be to have a separate sync directory on every
system, ie. not share it.
