I am running it on a border gateway, it's a mirrored external port....

I used the flag to not trust MACs, is there anything else I can do to
limit the hash size?

Rob,
a large hash is normal for a large nw. If this is not your case there's 
something wrong.

Where are you running ntop? On a border gw? Make sure you use the proper

options.
