During the 2005 leap second, I did see some of our peers show an
offset of 0.5 seconds for reasons that I don't understand. For
example, see the last graph on this page:
http://www.maths.tcd.ie/~dwmalone/time/leap2005_peers.html
It wasn't the only example - several other peers showed an offset
of near 0.5 seconds after the leap - you can find those through the
"more graphs of other peers" link at the bottom of the page.
David.
