Heh, here's what happens with 5174:

Correlation coefficient r^2: 0.773428 < 0.9
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec
1 sec = inf usec

And so forth...

P.S. Is there any way to specify how long to run clock_test from the
command line? It's a bit of a pain the grid to kill a process...

Thanks,
