Increasing the memory is not the real solution. The code will cope
with running out of mbufs, its a normal occurance. Whats wrong is
printing these messages. Printing these messages is a classic denial
of service problem. What it should do is limit the number of times it
prints it, to a maximum of one per second, or even not at all.
