By default, the tsc is calibrated at each boot, which means that timing
will likely change (and ntp drift values will be off) each time you boot.
There's a linux kernel command line option which will fix that and
provide consistency between boots, something like "clocksource=tsc
tsc_khz=2410988". The exact value depends on how fast the processor is
clocked.
