Hi,
If nothing else helps, maybe you can add some debug to look at the
numbers before they get dropped in the rrd and so try to confirm or not
that's a rrd consolidation characteristic or may be it could be the real
net test numbers ...

Our ping times occasionally turn up graphs like the attached... It seems to me that this is an artifact of how rrd averages multiple into time "buckets" but I am not quite sure of that... anybody have an opinion as to what causes it?


If the image doesn't come through as an attachment, I've put it up on http://www.email.net/jon/hobbitping.png

Curiously,
Jon
