Solved. There was a panel applet that was monitoring disk activity. I did a diff comparison on my previous vs. new config files (in ~/.gconf). After a bit of sorting, there were extra applet paths even though the visual config was nearly identical. Specifically, there was a config for a multiload applet and different viewiable loads enabled. There was also a multiload process running, so I killed it and network activity dropped immediately. I tried removing everything on the panel, although, nothing appears to kill that specific process/applet. This looks like a different problem entirely and must have been automatically configured with the initial loading of Gnome when I did the refresh.
