I expect that Father Time will come out of hibernation at any moment,
but...
NTP devotes considerable effort to providing the best possible time in
(even) the presence of very noisy data. If you are working in a noisy
environment, it would surprise me if you can do much better than Dave's
20 years of experimentation have produced. If you are working an a
quiet environment, with no Byzantine players and little or no jitter,
NTP should provide essentially the theoretical minimum error.
