Hello.  Yes, this is still actual.

The huge number of input errors is due to a 80-100kpps flood we received via 
that interface, which got the errors/sec numbers up in the 50k/s range for a 
few minutes.

Sorry if I didn't mention it.  I am using pf, but have tried "kldunload pf" and 
the errors didn't disappear.

This is the kind of traffic I am seeing:

Errors/second (5 minute average) per interface:

Packets/second (5 minute average) per interface:
http://www.dataxnet.ro/alex/packets.png

Those graphs were saved a few minutes ago, times are EEST (GMT+3)

I'm sorry I don't have the Mbits/s graphs up, I haven't been collecting that 
data per interface recently (it's collected per vlan).
