Thanks for the response David,
Heres output of netstat -s before and after my app data:
I have advised management to upgrade the kernel, but we have too many
custom drivers on this embedded system :-(. It would take way too long
to get everything working again.
cat /proc/sys/net/core/netdev_max_backlog = 300
set to 1000 also, with no effect
tried setting device to eth0 in ip_mreq struct for IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP
sock option, no change to packet loss.

I am a bit slow and cant make much out of this output though. My app
showed 7 messages lost.
cat /proc/net/dev

This makes more sense to me, as I can see the multicast packets received
on eth0. The multicast packets include my data + data from mrouted
