To (sort of) answer my own question. By adding -vv to my tcpdump I see that this error seems to be part of the venerable "nbd0: Attempted send on closed socket" which seems to happen whenever the server is restarted but the client stays up. So maybe my question is two-fold:
1) could lots (approx 4000 packet/s of this sort of traffic be causing my network issues that would impact end user performance 2) is there a way to alleviate or at least "turn off" this complaint? Thanks!
