This is a known bug in 2.0-beta2 -- the ping may not get rescheduled after firing during periods of high network activity. A fix has already been written and will be in beta3. As far as "drift" is concerned, by design, a random time interval between 0 and 1 second is added to all OpenVPN timers which are set to more than 1 second. This is designed to prevent bursts of timer-triggered activity when a large number of clients are present.
