About the only way to burden the pool would be to intentionally abuse a client via some other means. ;)
I like to use Meinberg's NTP build for Windows. The installer will disable the windows w32time service for you, and they have a GUI monitoring client you can also DL and run to help configure NTP and monitor its performance. http://www.meinberg.de/english/sw/ntp.htm > I want to synchonize my PC clock to pool.ntp.org under Windows XP. > I don't need extreme accuracy; within a tenth of a second is plenty > good enough.
