--- Comment #1 from Jeremy Chadwick <jdc at koitsu.org> ---
Few things to add for clarification:

1. The very long stall IS NOT caused by sleep(1).  It's caused by the model of
piping used with awk, best I can tell,

2. I've since modified /etc/periodic.conf, removing
daily_ntpd_avoid_congestion="no" since it's been deprecated and replaced with
the more universal anticongestion_sleeptime (which I now set to 10), and the
long delay during this problem still happens.

3. I can't tell what the full impact is here.  periodic daily certainly gets
delayed as a result, but I only noticed that in my most recent run from last
night -- an additional 30 minutes added -- which is very strange.

So for now let's not focus on the "long delay", but instead figure out why
$ntp_tmp_leapfile is undefined/empty.
