I've combined all of your thoughts into the patch below.
We set the initial ARP table very small (2 chains), and we

Thanks, Dave.

This should address all of your concerns.

Indeed, it does. This basically means I am very happy with your overall
patchset.  I'll inclue it in my next round of kernel builds and give it
some testing.  Do you still want to push this for 2.6.9?

I think I'll defer the 2.4.x backport until we've sorted out the one
remaining 'starvation due to incomplete' issue.
