We had a similiar problem everything worked but slower. Running ethereal on guest linux helped confirm a transmission problem which turned out to be in the switch. Once we replace the switch problem fixed. Note that depending on your lan speed and switch defaults, the switch may want to bounce back and forth attempting higher bandwidth which will also degrade performance. Set the ports manually. good luck.
If this is between guests that connect via vswitch or share an OSA adapater, the packets would not even touch the wire. That would at least be an easy way to strike off some of the possible things that could be causing this. I believe the reporter mentioned that it happened only with some of the guests, which makes it harder to believe it is somewhere in the single port they all share?

PS I still find the exact 1000 ms ping times very supsicious. I am wondering whether maybe the ping command on that client is broken / different in that it also counts the time that it waits between ping. I actually *know* of one application that issues 10 pings with default delay in between and reports the elapsed time divided by 10.
