currently my default mbuf clusters allocation is 4560.  I have 512Meg of
memory in the box.  can this box easily handle 32768 mbuf clusters?

netstat -m
258/576/18240 mbufs in use (current/peak/max):
        258 mbufs allocated to data
256/512/4560 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max)
1168 Kbytes allocated to network (8% of mb_map in use)
0 requests for memory denied
0 requests for memory delayed
0 calls to protocol drain routines
