You'll likely also want to tweak your conntrack hash table size...see:

No.  The kernel data structures (including stuff relating to netfilter and
conntrack) use up physical memory, not "disk" space (ramdisk space in the
case of leaf, which is what you set by system_size and temp_size), and
typically not even virtual memory (ie: they don't ever get swapped out to
disk like application programs can if you have a swap partition enabled).
