Description of problem: On baremetal and in VM, chronyd.service times are exceptionally high. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): chrony-1.27-1.fc19.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot the computer or VM with or without wired connection Actual results with systemd-analyze blame Baremetal with network connection: 12.443s chronyd.service chrony-wait.service doesn't make the list qemu on above baremetal with network connection: 30.021s chrony-wait.service 1.091s chronyd.service Expected results: Less than 10 seconds for wait. The service file says: Wait up to ~10 minutes for chronyd to synchronize and the remaining clock correction to be less than 0.1 seconds. Yet I see times of 30 seconds for wait and 1 second for the actual service. Additional info from the VM with 30 second wait: [root@tragic ~]# journalctl -b | grep chrony May 16 16:37:01 tragic.localdomain chronyd[307]: chronyd version 1.27 starting May 16 16:37:01 tragic.localdomain chronyd[307]: Linux kernel major=3 minor=9 patch=0 May 16 16:37:01 tragic.localdomain chronyd[307]: hz=100 shift_hz=7 freq_scale=1.00000000 nominal_tick=10000 slew_delta_tick=833 max_tick_bias=1000 shift_pll=2 May 16 16:37:02 tragic.localdomain chronyd[307]: Frequency -1.059 +/- 28.723 ppm read from /var/lib/chrony/drift May 16 16:37:02 tragic.localdomain systemd[1]: Starting Wait for chrony to synchronize system clock...
