Are the 20 different me3600's configured with l2vpn AF please?
Are the two RRs configured with l2vpn AF please?
Have you see the sessions bouncing on the me3600's
Are you running code past 15.3(1)S that should be capable of BGP Enhanced 
Attribute Error Handling but now I'm not that sure if MEs do support it,

This really looks like the second case I mentioned where RRs relied an UPDATE 
message that ME3600's perceived as malformed cause they could not parse through 
it.
And either BGP enhanced error handling wasn't enabled or a mandatory attribute 
was affected they ought to reset the session over which such a malformed UPDATE 
message is received.
Once the session is re-established they receive the update again and reset the 
session again -so the whole process loops.
And only stops after the culprit attribute is removed from the update message.
