That doesn't look too bad.

jbod is only needed when the ports don't share the same clock. It
degrades the sync quality.

It depends on the hardware. What NIC do you have?

One thing you can try is to shorten the sync interval and decrease the
PI constants, also on the client's port of the server to minimize the
frequency noise transferred to the client.
