I am wondering if there is a solution to my problem described below. Currently I've had to completely disable snmpd on a production server and use a different form of monitoring.

I have reduced the logging level with -LS3d and am still seeing a flood of errors. This causes a flickering in our monitoring system causing it to think the system is down.

Are you logging debug messages? 

[ https://github.com/net-snmp/net-snmp/blob/7fe7a78eb113fa752c224b358b931b6ef8530e29/snmplib/container.c#L347 | https://github.com/net-snmp/net-snmp/blob/7fe7a78eb113fa752c224b358b931b6ef8530e29/snmplib/container.c#L347 ] 

If so, on a production system you should probably reduce the amount of logging that's happening.

Greetings, 

I currently have a situation where we have many TCP connections at once and seem to get many errors related to 'tcpConnectionTable'. It seems the connection table gets full and I would like to resolve this. If I am not mistaken, I cannot simply disable this specific piece of the MIB. 

Below is the error: 
$ journalctl --unit=snmpd.service -n 20
--- snip ---
(host.domain) snmpd[27055]: error on subcontainer 'tcpConnectionTable' insert (-1)
--- snip ---
