VendorStable(tm)?;->

Sounds to me like an ARP gc challenge to me.
If it is, it would help incrementing the values in  
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/default/gc_thresh*

Try multiplying by some factor like 5 to see what happens i.e
---
hadi@lilsol:~$ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/default/gc_thresh1
128
---

Make that 640 and repeat multiplying by 5 all the other thresholds

cheers,
jamal

PS:- As usual i took lkml off the list
