DING! DING!  WINNER!
 
Issue resolved.  We didn't have a default currency defined even though
we are not doing anything remotely related to money in the app.
 
Ironic, considering I'm working at a Federal agency's accounting service
center.
 
I went from 509 calls in a very short time to 71 in 20 minutes or so.

** 
William, I have seen some problem occur, even in 7.1, if currencies
aren't defined in any way.  I would make sure that you at least have
default currencies defined.

        Can you post an entry from the api logs for one of the calls?
