It kind of depends. There's a lot of poor clocks at boot up time, but a continuously running host usually doesn't get too off, too quickly; I've seen some things, but even at 10% fast/slow, you don't have to jump days unless you're checking infrequently.

On the other hand, with virtualization, who knows how long it's really been between clock ticks. Let's say someone suspends a VM for a couple months and then unsuspends it; hopefully the clock is synchronized, but maybe it isn't, and you do need to jump ahead.

I thought I saw in the article that there are failsafes, but the allowed range is still pretty broad. But reporting is going to tend to be dominated by larger values, because smalller jumps are less likely to be noticed or more likely to be considered an accidental change.
