For what it's worth I've been seeing them too - I thought it was an oddity of our local network.

Hi

I use Hobbit to monitor about 700 systems. I get some mysterious looking graphs with the CONN test and also the bbgen test itself.
It looks like two overlayed sawtooth curves. Any idea why the graphs look so weird? I cannot believe these are the real response times.

Here are two demo pics:

BTW.: is there a way to speed up the connect test. It needs about 35sec which is not critical but not very fast.
