Stats boosts sometimes drained instantly

[Adventurer]

Stats boosts from drinks are sometimes drained instantly within like one or two ticks. Seems to usually happen when drinking the first drink during a session, and then the second one drains at a normal rate.

I have some vague memories of possibly hearing someone explain how this might be tied to the "world clock" of RuneScape, but as it's a very vague memory and I'm not too familiar with the subject, might as well ask here whether it's a bug or a feature?

Stat drains are applied on a consistent ticking clock that's global, so every player is affected at the same time. It's the same for the restore prayers.
