It seems that the value  of net.ipv4.ip_conntrack_max  has no so much to do with
the conntrack 'cause the when I measure current number of connections i.e.:

wc -l /proc/net/ip_conntrack
they show as ~20-30 000 connection, but I set

sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_conntrack_max=150000

and packets get dropped, I have to set it to value above 200 000 
so that packets are not dropped ?!!

Any idea why is that ? and what is the real correspondence between these
values, so that I can set correct value in advance, but not wait until
packets start to drop !!
