Yes as i write i change this settings after i see first info 
"secret_interval" - from 3600 to 2
To check if this resolve the problem.
Also my normal settings are:

/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/gc_thresh:256000
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/max_size:1048576
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/secret_interval:3600
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/gc_interval:2
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/gc_elasticity:2

And with this setting i was have this info:
Route hash chain too long!
Adjust your secret_interval!



Now i put Your settings as You suggest ... and we will see but i dont know it will help.
Because i try many of different settings.
