Hi Vincent, I've seen this too, its very annoying. The reason is it is sampling the rate over a 1 or 2 second interval as opposed to the interface rate which by default is 5 minutes altho you can go to as low as 30s (load-interval 30).
Cisco: it would be very nice if we could tune that period, 2s is way too short! I see it is a problem mainly on Windows networks, MS loves to send out unicast and broadcast junk and the machines on a network have a tendency to synchronize their bursts of traffic so you end up getting short bursts of traffic occasionally.
