I'd interpret it to mean you're hitting a control plane policer or
somesuch, with no actual bearing on end-to-end performance, judging
from the diagnostic output you've graciously provided us with.
I find myself giving this lecture several times a week to random
"gamer" customers upset that intermediary routers don't reply to their
pings at full line rate; I'd expect slightly better critical thinking
skills from the posters on this list, but I've been wrong before. :)
