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.
