When clouds have a large number of hosts, the default size of the ARP cache is too small. The cache can overflow, which means that the system has no way to reach some IP addresses. Increasing threshold limits addresses the situation, in a reasonably safe way (the maximum impact is 5MB or so of additional RAM used).
