The below values seem to workaround whatever problem the kernel has.

tcp_max_syn_backlog = 2048
route.max_size = 1048576
route.gc_thresh = 65536

I take that back. Under peak hours, the kernel starts spewing its stuff onto serial console and network connectivity is lost.

What it spews is not human readable anymore.

eg:
