The problem I am seeing has a graph almost exactly the same as yours. I don't know much about the hardware.  The
star-step graph looks the same as mine.  Lots of repeated sends from one server to another and only a single response to
each set of repeated sends.

Hi,
Here is my graph, interesting, that not just the shape but the scale is 
also different on BOTH axis. where can you read more about this subject?
Geza

P.s: This capture was taken from a dell raid server with a Gbit NIC card, 
for about 30 sec-1 minute, I can't remember, in a dell switch environment.
