Did you have a look at this ?

tuning(7):
kern.ipc.nmbclusters may be adjusted to increase the number of network
mbufs the system is willing to allocate. Each cluster represents appr=
ox-
imately 2K of memory, so a value of 1024 represents 2M of kernel memory
reserved for network buffers. You can do a simple calculation to figu=
re
out how many you need. If you have a web server which maxes out at 10=
00
simultaneous connections, and each connection eats a 16K receive and 1=
6K
send buffer, you need approximately 32MB worth of network buffers to d=
eal
with it. A good rule of thumb is to multiply by 2, so 32MBx2 =3D 64MB=
/2K =3D
32768. So for this case you would want to set kern.ipc.nmbclusters to
32768. We recommend values between 1024 and 4096 for machines with mo=
d-
erates amount of memory, and between 4096 and 32768 for machines with
greater amounts of memory. Under no circumstances should you specify =
an
arbitrarily high value for this parameter, it could lead to a boot-time
crash. The -m option to netstat(1) may be used to observe network clu=
s-
ter use. Older versions of FreeBSD do not have this tunable and requi=
re
that the kernel config(8) option NMBCLUSTERS be set instead.
