That should help a bit by removing it from startup :) In case you want to sync your clock manually when online, do this -- $ sudo ntpdate -bsu pool.ntp.org
and/or run a cron job every 'x' hours.
You can also sync. the CMOS clock after the above with "hwclock --utc|--localtime --systohc." At next reboot the system time will be fairly close to the time servers.
