You've run out of kernel memory for the firewall state table. I'm
guiessing your CPU load just wnet nuts too, right? Anyway,
www.phoneboy.com lists the fix for this, which is to add the line:
set fw:fwhmem=0x4000000
to your /etc/system file and then reboot. Actually phoneboy suggests a
smaller value than 0x4000000, but I usually like to give the FW kernel a
lot of "room for growth" so to speak. 0x4000000 = 65M or RAM, but you
can set it lower than that if you are worried about anything (I think
Phoneboy says to set it at say 5MB (0x500000). Hope this helps.
