As I said, I believe that one of the reasons chrony is better is because it reacts to changes, like temp change, much faster. If there are no changes, I suspect, but cannot prove, that they are very similar. But most people do not have temperature controlled crystals on their computer, and most people have variable work that their computer does, so the internal temperature fluctuates. > > We have systems in places that are not temperature controlled and then > chrony is much better.
