the above is caused probably all the time, but not noticeable until
heavy load.
The system becomes vary sluggish, hulu craps out, radio craps out
(not fun)...
When you say heavy load, do you mean heavy network load (traffic) or system load
(CPU)? I think there are timeouts in the key exchange which might fail if the
system were really loaded. Then again that probably wouldn't effect established
connections. The snippet below looks as if the connection was dropping and
resetting, may be a driver issue.
After disabling NetworkManager and compiling wpa_supplicant from
the source(using the default .config they supply for compiling)
wpa_supplicant looks like this:
[name@name wpa_supplicant]$
sudo /home/name/Sources/wpa_supplicant-0.6.9/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ieth1 -c /home/name/wpa

still shows some errors, but I'm able to stream music, plus watch movies
without having a sluggish system, nor having stuckage of internet.
I would file a bug, but there probably already is, since this is
something I've seen for some time now right!

Using a humble old Celeron laptop and FC11, doing
ssh host2 "dd bs=5k count=50k" </dev/zero >/dev/null
doesn't show much CPU in use.
Casual test, one line and 'top' to see who uses CPU.
Thanks for the bug#, will follow there.
