My tor logs (running on Debian) are showing this warning: [WARN] Your system clock just jumped 100 seconds forward; assuming established circuits no longer work.
I tried running openntpd as well as ntp packages (debian), and both display the same problem - once or twice a day I get this jump in time of in the order of a couple of minutes.
Are you on a virtual machine? Do you control the VM host? If not, it could be that your host is migrating your VM, or not scheduling it properly, which causes time drifts inside the VM.
No VM, an older 32-bit box, 1GiB RAM, no swap.

It may just be that your machine completely hangs for a while occasionally; that will look to tor like a clock jump in that direction. Either hard disk timeouts of some kind, or serious swapping. If VM then also possibly the entire VM being starved occasionally.
