If you run ntpd it should detect (over time) how much and at what rate
your clock is drifting - "natural drift". The daemon will then
compensate for this and attempt to keep things synced.

However, a drift of a few seconds every few minutes is odd - never
seen it that bad... I would check with the Parallels people to see if
this is a known issue...
