we have >50 failures in the last week on windows.

:gfritzsche, could you help find someone who knows about telemetry or this test case to look into it in the next week or two?

I just got back from PTO and currently swamped with the backlog, but I will try to get here ASAP. Leaving the ni? around.
:dexter, any progress on this (or at least your backlog and coming back to this)?

This is funny and interesting :-D I added some debug prints to the Telemetry code responsible of populating the probe [1]. It turns out that, in the intermittently failing test, the telemetry code [3] and the local ping server became so fast that the time it takes to send a ping a receive a reply is 0, on every affected failing build (which are opt or pgo). Yay/D'oh!
