--- Comment #3 from philipp.reinkemeier at offis.de ---
Sorry for being not responsive. Regarding the issue: As expected from the
source code (the monotonically increasing poll interval set in method
manager_adjust_poll(...)), the interval when the clock is written to disk is
finally 2048 seconds. 2048 seconds seems to be the maximum value of the poll
interval.

I perfectly understand the argument about the system crash you mentioned. But
would it be possible to just make this a configurable option (via
timesyncd.conf file)? This could default to the behavior you habe right now,
with an option for the user to disable the periodic sync to disk if he is
concerned about keeping disk spin-ups at a minimum.
