| 1. Adding varnish triggered the problem.
| 2. Changing the MTU solved the problem.
| 3. The system administrators of the ISP had seen a similar
| problem/solution in the past.

| My limited understanding is that varnish's role in the problem was
| just being more demanding ("standards sensitive"), whereas Apache was
| able to handle the bad data better.

It looks like she was hitting timeouts in varnish.
