I can't quote an exact number for an acceptable level of variance, but the variance you are seeing doesn't look good. Also I think you said users are complaining of disconnects. Once you have lots of user complaints, then, in general, you're past the acceptable level of variance. Have you tried Trace Route? It might indicate a routing loop problem. Once again, trace route into the network. Don't trace route to the router. (IOS rate limits ICMP TTL Exceeded messages, so you don't get a good idea of the actual delay.) What is the reliability of these two links? Is it a lot less than 255/255? Have there been a lot of CRC errors? The fact that both links are affected points to any component that they both share. Buliding wiring to the POP? Wiring to the service provider? On the Frame Relay link, are there lots of FECNS, BECNS, DEs? Are you exceeding your CIR? Have you tried some other tests besides Ping? Do you have a protocol analyzer that would let you look at some packets when you do some more advanced testing? Finally, have you involved the service provider? I think you should get them to run some tests.
