The problem for ntp is that ntp takes a long time to recover from a bad
drift value.
This seems to have been an issue since I started using ntp, more than 10 years
ago. I am surprised that it is not fixed.
If you know the drift file is unreliable, you should delete it. ntpd
will then perform a frequency calibration before entering the main loop.
Otherwise it starts on the basis that the drift value is good and it
is seeing measurement errors.
