I can see the same problems with failed requests on many my machines.
(WinXP, Debian 5) . The simple test using default web2py examples
shows me, that template rendering is OK
e.g. http://localhost:8000/examples/template_examples/test_for but
when using form example like in  
http://localhost:8000/examples/form_examples/form
causes request failures. Constantly, when I did test repeatedly,
template rendering example caused no problem, but form based example
claimed 13-15% of failed requests for me. I have use apache ab. As
stated above, I could see the same results despite of platform.

I tested today on latest version 1.81.4 with default Rocket web server.
(I remember I could see the same issues with CherryPy as well)
