>Description:
After sequental pipe config/flush, dummynet hits limit of memory and `dmesg` ouputs : "ipfw: setsockopt(IP_DUMMYNET_CONFIGURE): Cannot allocate memory", and crashes. Pipe is configured with src-ip or dst-ip mask (dummynet hash pipes). 

>How-To-Repeat:
In fresh install : 
for ((i=1;$i<2000000; i=$i+1)); do ipfw pipe 1 config bw 10Mbit/s mask src-ip 0xffffffff ; ipfw -f pipe flush ; done

When Wired memory hits about 370Mb of RAM, it crashes. 
It's possible to make it crash faster - rise net.inet.ip.dummynet.hash_size up to the maximum size.
