Logging into Management UI causes network latency

Can someone else please test this? Run a continuous ping to a PA200, log into the PA200's management UI, did the pings response times increase? Or drop?We are noticing this on about 5 different remote PA200's. They are all on 6.0.6. Some are on DSL and some on cable. Response times jump from 20-40ms to 900-1000ms, and some time out.

Normally, data transfer is very low.2) Within that session, 100GB of data is suddenly transferred one day between 6pm and 7pm, pegging the site's Internet bandwidth.3) The data transfer becomes very low again after the burst. The session doesn't terminate...
