Yup, ages ago, quite a bit of trouble getting Cisco to admit a problem with a router. It should not matter where the traffic is coming from and if anything it would be easier to figure out if I could write code to try to pick the problem out of the firehose. Nope, had to demonstrate it with no code at all before they would look. Finally got enough workstations running dir . /s > nul to cause it to mess up. (I knew it was load related.) And HP wasn't even interested in my file that plotted upside-down. (I suspect even if they had been willing to look they wouldn't have wanted to fix it--there was probably enough buggy hardware out there that they would take the position of declaring it right.)
