> The ESP8266 reconnects to the NTP server every 15 minutes which keeps the clock accurate.

It doesn't seem to be hammering the NTP server 30 times a second.

Ah ok, I guess I misunderstood this part:

>Ten times each second the ESP8266 compares the time displayed on the analog clock to the actual time retrieved from an NTP server.

Not sure where I got 30 from. Dyslexia between reading and commenting.

No worries. You would be right to be concerned about an NTP server being polled so regularly.
