Just throwing out ideas: is it possible you have a separate network
problem? Maybe a bad cable somewhere or a network device that's about to
die? Is the overall load of your network very high?
You could use something like multicast (not Spread multicast, just raw UDP
multicast) to see if you're getting packet drops in your network. While
the UDP spec obviously allows for packet drops, on a wired LAN in the same
physical location with low network load, you should virtually never see
actual dropped packets.
Maybe even start more simply and look at interface statistics for all the
devices (switches, routers, servers) on your network and see if you have
packet drops.
