+ Time smoothing determines an offset that needs to be applied to the cooked
+ time to make it smooth for external observers. Observed offset and frequency
+ change slowly and there are no discontinuities. This can be used on an NTP
+ server to make it easier for the clients to track the time and keep their
+ clocks close together even when large offset or frequency corrections are
+ applied to the server's clock (e.g. after being offline for longer time).
+
+ Accumulated offset and frequency are smoothed out in three stages. In the
+ first stage, the frequency is changed at a constant rate (wander) up to a
+ maximum, in the second stage the frequency stays at the maximum for as long
+ as needed and in the third stage the frequency is brought back to zero.
