by default, how often ntpd does the synchronization? can we change the

Running ntpd is better. And although you do not have control over the
ntp time polling interval, ntpd does automatically reduce its frequency
of polling as time adjustments and drift adjustments improve the
correllation between local and reference time. It is very low overhead.
