why not check them all? Electrons are cheap.

Cut-n-paste the output of this into your switch.[1]
Also, have you checked all of the interfaces for port drops?
# show int | i drops
If you see a port with lots of drops, check to make sure that the port
drops aren't increasing.

that's pretty insignificant.

Probably not, no. mtr doesn't fill a switch port up with traffic. Nor
does ping, unless you're running a flood ping.

What is a "network request"? And how does it relate to individual packets?
This is a switch router. It doesn't care about layer 4 through layer 9.
If you want to snoop on traffic, check out span / rspan / erspan. Beware
that on a loaded 6148 blade, this can cause havoc with dropped packets.
If both your backplane drops and your port queue drops are insignificant,
then check for duplex mismatches (as other people have suggested), framing
errors and that sort of thing. e.g.
# show int | i error
Under normal circumstances, you should see 0 errors, low and non-increasing
drops and 0 backplane drops.
