I would suggest starting without, and adding it in once you are confident
that NTP is working correctly, and you feel you have a good "handle" on
managing it. Although the jitter as reported by NTP is lowered, the
actual offset seems to be little different on the Windows systems I've
tried.

Yes, quite a lot of differences. I put together a rather mixed bag of
notes here:

in case that helps.
