There are no tx/rx errors but

     dropped_link_overflow: 10046509
     dropped_link_error_or_filtered: 72353

This is of some concern, but wouldn't be sure what really happened.
Are you using myricom 10gig interfaces?

https://www.myricom.com/software/myri10ge/397-could-you-explain-the-meanings-of-the-myri10ge-counters-reported-in-the-output-of-ethtool.html

=================
dropped_link_overflow

The number of received packets dropped due to lack of receive
(on-chip) buffer space. This will happen if:

our driver/firmware is not consuming fast enough, and
the flow-control is off, or
the flow-control is on, so we are sending pause frames, but the other
side does not obey them.

Verify that ethernet flow control is enabled on the 10GbE switch to
which the adapter is connected.

If the application's traffic is bursty, have you tried the load-time
option myri10ge_big_rxring=1? Please read: Would you explain the
Myri10GE load-time option myri10ge_big_rxring?
=================

=================
dropped_link_error_or_filtered

The number of received packets that are not received into the receive
buffer because they are malformed, they are PAUSE frames used for
Ethernet flow control, they are not destined for the adapter (i.e. the
packet's destination MAC address does not match the adapter's MAC
address), or their destination MAC addresses are of the form
01:80:C2:00:00:0X (reserved addresses).

If this counter keeps increasing when there is no traffic, then the
increase is likely due to BPDU. If it only increases during a stress
test (achieving close to line rate), then the increase is likely due
to PAUSE. The counter also includes malformed frames due to CRC or
whatever. Also refer to How do I check for badcrcs when running the
Myri10GE software? for further details.
=================

May be contacting your Myricom vendors would be a right start?
