Graphs display time difference from standard and a quick view of computer accuracy. The Current Settings chart shows the time adjustment, in seconds, made at each setting. The difference is the amount of time the internal clock was off from standard time. The time the settings were made is shown across the bottom of the graph. The Clock Drift chart shows the amount of drift, as measured in seconds per day, between two successive settings where the system clock was changed.
Drift is an indication of how accurate the system clock is over time.
The time the settings were made is shown across the bottom of the graph. The Previous Settings graph provides a quick way to view the local computer's clock accuracy over time. The chart shows the time adjustment, in seconds, made at each past setting recorded in the log file.
