run: sysctl vm.min_free_kbytes
and then take the number of KB output from that and multiply it by two.

Then run:
sysctl -w vm.min_free_kbytes=new-number-of-KB

(substitute the value you calculated for "new-number-of-KB" in my case
it was 16266 KB doubled to 32532 KB)

To make this persistent over reboots:

put it in a file like /etc/sysctl.d/e1000e-bug-fix.conf

#
# double amount of memory kept free
#
# 16266 KB -> 32532 KB
#
vm.min_free_kbytes = 32532
