That's not surprising behaviour on a PaloAlto unit, they are still  
very young in the market and my colleagues have had issues with NAT  
and proxy arp in the recent past.

behaves like a NAT table exhaustion, but the firewall only reports  
13000
sessions in progress for all the NAT addresses on that firewall. I'm
thinking memory leak or something. We only put that device in place

about 2-3 weeks ago.

Seems to be fixed for now and the f/w dude is opening a ticket with  
the f/w
vendor.
