I don't know how helpful this is....
But we do run F5 loadbalancers in front of our biggest app. There are 2
servers hitting us every 5 seconds each for HTTP and for 2 for HTTPS.
So, a total 4 hits every 5 seconds. But it runs across 17 z9 EC IFL's
and there's never an idle time so I couldn't really tell you exactly how
much CPU that accounted for but ... Very rough math here ... We get
about 130 TPS at 60% busy so 2 TPS is about 1% busy. 1% of 17 IFL = .17
IFL or 17% of an IFL. If the trans were full blown -- but you said they
are not the full blown trans...
Can you take your interval from 2 seconds to a higher number and see
what happens?
(and yes, they are fat cpu intensive trans in case anyone wonders :)
You can also check in your HTTP logs how often they really do hit you.
and also use iptables to drop the packets, and see what that does.
