you need 30* the number of parallel tests you are running.

(H*P) if you re running 30 tyests
with 4 bpf's, you can run... I would run 2 tests in parallel on one host
at a time.

edit your kernal, build and install and reboot
then make new bpf's (there is a sample script in the readme docs of
nessus)
