I have been running mrouted 3.8.2 on several FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE
machines since it's release without problem until recently.

I have started getting the following messages:

Sep 12 00:52:38 firewall /kernel: ip_mforward: ip_mrouter socket queue full 

Is this telling me that the allocated space in the kernel for mroutes is full? 

It seems that this didn't start happening until the dvmrp route table got 
above 3xxx routes. 

What is a good workaround/solution?

As always, thanks in advance.
