My instant gut reaction here is to say 'IPv6'. If your DNS setup is wrong on the 'local' machine, then whenever it tries to look up localhost it could well be spending ages trying to query it up the DNS hierarchy. This would explain the burst traffic: every HTTP connection would involve a very long pause for the lookup, and then normal traffic thereafter. I don't know if this is actually the case or not, but don't ask me how to fix it --- I don't use IPv6 on any machines I admin.
