That load's the point. That's with no users on the PM2ER.

I wasn't having reachability problems. Reachability was fine for me
and for users but the line was saturated with 'idle' load.
As further info, the line doesn't begin this way. Immediately after
the link comes up this idle load wssn't there. It built up over about
five minutes, with ping times on the line going from its normal ~40 ms
to hundreds of ms.
I moved this end of the line back to the old cisco, and it's working
fine. That still leaves me with a) the problem causing me to move the
line, and b) a worry about hanging more PM2ERs off cisco ports. The
latter is just what I am (was?) preparing to do.
