That's the simplest approach, as it bumps up numerous kernel setting.
With 4.4 you can tune it in loader.conf, so changing the setting isn't a

You should probably check how many sockets are sticking around in the
TIME_WAIT state and compare it to kern.ipc.maxsockets - that may be the
limit you're hitting first.
