Gads. Show int count error. I can't believe I missed that. I just can't. 
*whacks head* 

I am (unfortunately?) running 12.2(44)SE, thus clearly shooting myself in the 
foot. Sigh. I've wondered about upgrading... and was planning to try QoS to 
prioritize the trading system traffic at least (another way around the 
buffering issue) - and just to turn on mls qos, so one could look at the 
buffering, since you need the qos commands to look and you don't have them when 
qos is off.

Thanks!!
