well the grey box below the graph is an artefact produced by a
error in smokeping ... this has been corrected some time ago.
in any vent you are seeing a log entry where 4 out of 20 pings got
lost and there was some added variability in the response time most
likely in connection with the loss (some pings got through all the
same but where a little delayed) there is rarely a situation where
pings return early.
