the ip route with a grep for link returns:

All the pppoe terminations (pppd) are shown, as well as the last three
subnets. I'll have to see where the 169.254.0.0/16 is coming from?

This box is doing a lot. It terminates 1000 PPPoE connections,
provides traffic shaping using TC/HTB, authenticates all users via
Radius. It also runs OSPF routing for the internal network. Looking
at a simple route output I see all the PPP connections coming through
the box, and due to the OSPF I also see the rest of my network
announcements. The only strange things are:
1. The last man working on this box had mistakenly edited the hosts
file and added the machine name and complete domain name to the local
host 127.0.0.1 name. It should only be pointed to the eth0
interface. I have changed this.
2. The route output is making an announcement
64.0.0.0 argontech.net 255.0.0.0 UG 20
0 0 eth0
This doesn't look dangerous for your problem, I was only talking about
directly connected networks:
# ip route |grep link
My public IP space is a /20 within that space, not the whole Class A.
I have not found which box is announcing this within my network yet.

What about checking your routing table? you may have link routes
for massive subnets (like 85.0.0.0/8 or 140.20.0.0/16). Some
programs prefer to use "standard" netmask of classes A and B.
I'm betting that the OP has other things going on seeing has how
s/he mentioned PPPoE, which to my knowledge is a layer 2 protocol,
and thus not subject to typical routing scenarios. In essence the
OP could have thousands of PPPoE connections terminating on one
system with the ARP cache having to deal with where to send traffic
to which MAC address. There is not a lot of room for routing in such
a scenario.
I agree with Peter's suggestion, arpd. I ran into the neighbor table
overflow problem recently, at the hands of our ISP. I was in the
process of recompiling the kernel and mucking with arpd (I couldn't
get it to run/start properly) when the problem disappeared as quickly
as it showed up. Lucky for me, this was some kind of ISP problem, I
was able to determine that much through `tcpdump -i X -n arpd`.
My 'two cents' is that you try arpd, I did a bit of looking when I
came across that problem and it seemed to be the last ditch effort
when changing the gc threshold had no effect. Wasn't able to confirm
that it worked for sure though.
Cheers.
