Well, the default value is quite low (if I remember 64000).
And in the past, I have had packets drop (when netfilter conntrack was enabled 
on bridges in kernel)

because this really track all connections, also not yet established (like a syn 
flood, and you can easily filled the table).

I don't known if we can setup a really high value by default ?


Also, it's seem that another option must be tune,

/etc/modprobe.conf:

options ip_conntrack hashsize=32768


I need to read a little more about it

What is the disadvantage having that as default?
