Dave Rawks proposed the following answer:
> We have garbled metrics which I believe are only in the prefix of the
name submitted which leads to garbled directories

This strongly implicates whatever client code you are using for sending
to carbon since carbon itself doesn't do any different handling on the
"prefix"/path vs the metric/file portions of the namespace. I've seen
similar corruption in a large statsd fronted carbon installation and it
was caused by a popular java based statsd client which experienced
corruption of the calling classpath when an exception occurred in the
instrumented method.
