Goal
Eliminate time drift and load-related update delays.

Steps
1) Verify system time on:

• KDS device
• Store server
  2) Correct any drift (manual sync or NTP restart).
  3) Check for signs of load:
• Slow UI response
• Audio/visual lag
  4) If load is high:
• Restart KDS services
• Reduce background tasks
  5) Retest with new orders.
  6) If still delayed → proceed to P-000123-05.

Notes

• Time drift exaggerates perceived lag even when data is correct.
