accidentally snipped off the tail interval there, but it's still matching:

You can see that the first test has chunks missing at regular intervals. These two graphs were made from the same data, sent from the same perl script, to two different tests, RTM and rtmstats. I did this originally back when I was having trouble with RRD choking on the extra information and wanted to separate the stats, but I've kept it because the one graph is so spotty. On the client side,my perl script for the test is logging that it is sending the data correctly, and I believe it's always displaying correctly on the test page
On the xymon server, I see the rrd file for RTM is missing some entries that are populated on the rtmstats, for example:
RTM: <!-- 2012-08-01 17:05:00 EDT / 1343855100 --> <row><v>3.5954352000e+05</v><v>3.5456424000e+05</v><v>1.0610000000e+03</v><v>3.9142800000e+03</v><v>4.9752800000e+03</v><v>1.3876000000e+00</v></row> <!-- 2012-08-01 17:10:00 EDT / 1343855400 --> <row><v>NaN</v><v>NaN</v><v>NaN</v><v>NaN</v><v>NaN</v><v>NaN</v></row> rtmstats: <!-- 2012-08-01 17:05:00 EDT / 1343855100 --> <row><v>3.5954352000e+05</v><v>3.5456424000e+05</v><v>1.0610000000e+03</v><v>3.9142800000e+03</v><v>4.9752800000e+03</v><v>1.3876000000e+00</v></row> <!-- 2012-08-01 17:10:00 EDT / 1343855400 --> <row><v>3.8017446000e+05</v><v>3.7497760000e+05</v><v>1.0860800000e+03</v><v>4.1067800000e+03</v><v>5.1928600000e+03</v><v>1.3678000000e+00</v></row>
What could be causing this discrepancy?
Looking at that interval on the client side log: /home/xymon/client/bin/bb 10.100.5.42 'status+12h myhost.example.com.RTM green Wed Aug 1 17:04:15 2012 Total : 357039 Success : 352086 Temp_Errors : 1058 Other_Errors : 3891 Total_Errors : 4949 Percent_Failure : 1.39% <SNIP lots more stuff>
