Hi,

I have 2 stratum 1 Freebsd boxes in roughly the same configuration,
ie a network stratum 1 peer and a Cs 1PPS ; they are working
ok afaics, but both report a sys_jitter of 0.001907 that seem to be an
impasable lower limit. Does anyone have some link/explanation
regarding the mechanism behind this limit ?

Thank you in advance.

Below are ntpq -p and ntpq -c rv output for both machines :
