"partial tables"
There were only 292 IPv4 routes, which was expected. The IPv6 routes were expected to be less. There were 118k IPv6 routes in a box that could only handle... 4k?
Fixed that errant IPv6 fill and all is well. Well, seemingly anyway. I won't rule out a coincidence, but these seems like a direct line from problem to resolution.

We have a Nexus 3064 that is setup with partial BGP tables and is routing based on that.
I've done a show ip bgp for an IP of interest and it has an expected next hop IP. I show ip arp on that next hop IP and it has the expected interface.
However, sFlows show the packets leaving on a different interface, the one that would carry the default route for routes not otherwise known.
If the next hop IP is expected and the ARP of that next hop IP is expected, why are packets leaving out an unexpected interface?
