Mine works ok.  I don’t think there is an issue. The entries aren’t deleted 
when the limit is reached,  unless there a request for a new client which 
arrives after it. 
Maybe you had no new requests coming in?

Here I have limited the entry count to 5 and age to 30

here I did an ntpdate -d from client raspb4

you can see that the entry or electron has been removed.
