It's OK, it just means that you have *alot* of connections going through your box (or maybe you don't route both ways through your box, which you need to do for connection tracking to work). We have to be slow in timing out connections, but when the limit gets hit, we get more aggressive: the algo's pretty good, so you probably won't notice any problems.
