I have written a program [1] to get the data items
that have been mentioned in different posts in this
thread and in mails.

Does it make sense? If so, what do those digits tell
you?

For these clock ticks (in nanoseconds):

    85033108461718
    85033109544537
    85033110621490
    85033111714366
    85033112794112
    85033113871903
    85033114934049
    85033116009605
    85033117089909
    85033118169656
    85033119256945
    85033120336411
    ...

The output is:

    radings: 543
    mean: 1076366.000000
    variance: 14127140.000000
    standard deviation: 3758.608785
    min: 1062145
    max: 1096507

    1082818
    1076952
    1092875
    1079745
    1077790
    1062145
    1075555
    1080303
    1079746
    1087288
    1079465
    1072762
    ...
