Would that show up in the rpc statistics on the client somehow?

In that case--I seem to remember there's a way to configure the size of
the client's slot table, maybe lowering that (decreasing the number of
rpc's allowed to be outstanding at a time) would work around the
problem.

Should the client be doing something different to avoid or recover from
overflows of the gss window?
