IOS Crypto drops

Hello,

Cisco 837 ver 12.3(11)T4

LAN--837==Internet===Other.vpn.device--LAN |----------VPN-tunnel-------|

I am seeing dropped packets over this link and wondered if anyone might have any suggestions regarding the following.

Pings across the link show close to exactly 1 in 1000 drops.

The 837 reports

router#sh cry eng acc stat .... 3061179 packets in 3061179 packets out tx_lo_count 2833 ....

tx_lo_count/packets-in close to 1/1000.

Hmm! packets-in = packets-out??? Odd!

router#sh proc cpu | inc cry PID Runtime(ms) Invoked uSecs 5Sec 1Min 5Min TTY Process 140 575164 2720 211457 0.00% 0.05% 1.09% 0 crypto sw pk pro router#

"Invoked" number is close to "tx_lo_count".

The "uSecs" is uSecs CPU time per invocation which seems to me to be a lot at 200 ms.

I am clutching at straws here I know, however my question is:

Can anyone shed light on the meaning of "tx_lo_count" or any other light on these observations. I have had a look on CCO but can find no meaningful information.

Full output of "sh cry eng acc stat" follows:

router#sh cry eng acc stat Load for five secs: 22%/5%; one minute: 11%; five minutes: 17% Time source is SNTP, 11:43:33.192 UTC Tue Mar 15 2005
