What sort of 'backups', using what exactly ?

Did you monitor the input Q drop figure from

	net.inet.ip.intr_queue_drops

before during and after the service impacting traffic ?

Do you capture interface statistics using something like Cacti ?

Some idea of packet forwarding rate, before during and after would be 
useful.
