Abstract: A new kind of clock started when the South
African president inaugurated MeerKAT during July 2018, and the public
considered the telescope ready to go! Little do they know of the
challenges facing those of us working to deliver MeerKAT and its
science projects, problems whose solutions are applicable to the
broader challenges of the SKA. I will talk about my assessment of the
performance of MeerKAT via data quality metrics within their real-time
SDP pipeline, building various tools and pipelines to process the
data, and trying not to sweat it in the race against the clock!
