Hi Dave,

> Yeah, something like the following, Anton?

Thanks! I tested on a 512GB box. One thing:

# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_max_syn_backlog 
128

We probably want to use max():

> -	sysctl_max_syn_backlog = min(128, cnt / 256);
> +	sysctl_max_syn_backlog = max(128, cnt / 256);

With that change:

# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_max_orphans 
262144
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_max_tw_buckets
262144
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_max_syn_backlog 
2048
