We are using the following patch to increase the netlink receive

I am afraid that this might be insufficient - as it depends on CPU
power,
system load and probably some other factors like number of routes etc.
In my case (multi-CPU dedicated border router) where bird is the only
significant
consumer of CPU power and running only BGP (with very few OSPF nodes)
I had to set it to 128MB to get rid of any loss, 64MB was barely
sufficient.
Therefore I believe it makes sense to make the buffer size configurable.
