I'm using a clean Debian image:

https://rcn-ee.com/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2015-08-31/console/bone-debian-8.1-console-armhf-2015-08-31-2gb.img.xz

And just installing chrony from the feeds. With any kernel from 3.17
you'll have wrong estimates at chronyc sourcestats.

Miroslav did some tests at a beaglebone I set for him, according to my
initial post.

Miroslav also dismissed this being related to nohz after some tests.

Thanks,
Nuno
