I'm not 100% sure what you mean by "drains the web traffic to zero".

Is it the case that over a number of hours, the load balancers stop
handling web traffic for the virtual hosts you've configured? If so, you
probably have the ARP problem and have not hidden your loopback
interfaces sufficiently on your realservers.

If something else, please clarify.

Thanks
