You have been subscribed to a public bug by Robie Basak (racb): ntpd seems to add offsets instead of subtracting them from the running synchronized clock, leading to time running away fast in one direction -- forward if the offset is positive, -- backward if the offset is negative, until the offset reaches its maximum.
