I find that when I logon to Demon each day my clock on my RiscPC seems to
show a difference of 1 second (loss), and this appears to be fairly
consistent at about 1 sec/day approximately. Occasionally the loss got
greater when there was heavy application work going on. Does anyone know if
this is a problem?
