In addition, Kronos' overhead load can easily be reduced further

If Khronos is rolled out as part of an OS with ntp function, and an
overloading of the ntp pool happens, it would too late save those
ntp nodes. They might remove themselves from the pool, making it even
worse for the remaining pool entries.

pool.ntp.org is production infrastructure. I still do not see a
proper justification for adding Khronos to everything but researcher's
machines. The draft really needs to clarify who should run this, and
what their benefits are, and who should NOT run this.

Ideally, it would recognise when the ntp pool has become overloaded with
queries and back off in some way.
