OK, right after reporting this problem, I've started to collect loopstats on Mac mini. See graph attached.

It takes ~36 hours to achieve relatively stable frequency value after reboot. I have seen values as low as 6.xx before started logging. My servers stablize much faster than Mac mini. Is this Mac hardware issue? I don't have other Intel Mac mini available and can't check it.

Now I see perfect polling interval of 1024 sec:

"Network Time" is Apple name for ntpd :)
