If you want time in the range of 10s of ms, you need to select the servers you use.  With something like the pool, you are likely to get a server on the other side of the country with associated routing quirks.

I think the goal of the pool project has always been good-enough rather than great accuracy.  100 seems like a reasonable cutoff point to me.  What did you have in mind?

Another consideration is that there is only one monitoring station.
