[hobbit] interesting patterns in graphs

[Werner (Hobbit - list_ext)]

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 ...
