Orion erratic graph patterns

I am having an issue with some graphs in Orion and was wondering if anyone has run into a similar issue or have a work around. Some of our graphs are showing traffic patterns that are not accurate and we rely on these graphs for billing purposes and calculating overage/burst charges. The only pattern i can detect is the throughput on the circuits, it seems when the port reaches over 250-300mb the graph freaks out.

For example on one of our nexus routers we have about 20 Gigabit and 15 FastEthernet ports graphing, and i am only seeing an issue with ports on the chassis that reach 300mb or more. It seems when the bandwidth climbs to around 300mb the graph becomes unreliable. Between the hours of about 8am to 5pm these port never drops below 300mb on a 30second or 5 minute average. I have attached a graph for one port example ...

I will try that now. Thanks for the reply.

I have allowed 64bit counters and still no change...
