[time-nuts] Simple NTP server based on a Raspberry Pi

Hi

One week link on the Pi (at the moment) is file system access. Storage is on
an SD card and the drivers aren't as optimized as you might like. Not so big
a deal for NTP, might be a bigger deal for a web or file server. I have not
tried USB disks, so no idea how they do.

I've always wondered about the utility of a light duty server.  They
are useless unless you have at least one client computer to use it and
then it you do have a computer why not simply run the server on that?
All NTP installations are both clients and servers.

One reason I asked abut load average is because I thought the Pi might
make a good web and file server.  Seems like it might.  Those are
services that also need to run 24x7
