We are using the following patch to increase the netlink receive buffer size to 2 MB.
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. /Al
