HASHSIZE = CONNTRACK_MAX / 8 = RAMSIZE (in bytes) / 131072 / (x / 32)
x= 32 or 64
CONNTRACK_MAX = HASHSIZE * 8
That makes sense, thanks.

Hi,
I'm trying to find out how high I can set conntrack_max on a 2GB 64 bit
system. On the net I found different ways of calculating this but they
seem to end up with different results. One forumla tells me that I can
fit a maximum of 65535 connections into 2GB of RAM but the other says
that with 304 bytes per connection (plus a bit of slab allocation
overhead) I can easily fit more than a million connections into the table.
Also even with the current limit 65535 and the table having ca. 30.000
entries I've almost 1.8GB ram free/cached which leads me to believe the
second way of calculating this is more accurate.
What is the proper way to calculate this?
Regards,
Dennis
