Server Sporadically Responding To Pings

Mystery solved. One of our servers became very sluggish in responding to requests. When I tested the server by pinging continuously, request timed out for about 10% of the pings. It turned out that the NIC was malfunctioning. Replaced the ethernet card and all is well again.
