Dear all helping,
I believe I have found the issue after talking with one of my (least favorite) techs. He was doing a CPU swap on a rack router and got thermal paste onto the socket. Since all he had on had was a microfiber cloth and IPA. He assumed it would be fine to clean it without covering the pins if he was careful enough. The microfiber cloth caught some pins and (like velcro) bent them too far out of line for us to repair. I have a new mother board being sent up but it won’t be here until the 16-23 including a new case and power supply all coming between 16-30. He never reported it due to the system turning on and appearing to work. I believe some of the pins contribute to PCIe lanes or something of the sort. I am not 100% on this being the issue but it so seems reasonable enough to give it a shot fixing. I have noticed green artifacts on the screen when booting and the graphics is on board the CPU (Integrated intel graphics.)
Thanks, John Csuti (216) 633-XXXX

I am hosting 3 VM's limited at 10Mbps all together. Each VM is limited to 1Mbps via proxmox. I have noticed if i have these relays running it kills a 10Gbps fiber optic line. All the way down to 50Mbps or worse depending on what the time of day. Any idea what i can try? I noticed this happen over the past few months maybe its increased usage on the relays not sure. According to TOR relay search the demand has spiked recently. I wondering why/how it could bypass the limits on both proxmox and pfsense.
I am experiencing a similar effect since a few months, often without filling even half of the available bandwidth. Like what Sebastian suggested earlier, I suspect the horrible quality ISP-supplied modem/router. It’s not like the bandwidth is actually used: in fact during the interruptions it falls to a negligible level. The situation is more about packets being dropped or experiencing extremely large processing times (hundreds to thousands msecs).
If your situation is similar and you do not need the router function, does switching to bridge mode help in any way?
