You want to be quite sure about using a much larger value here.  Of
course, the kernel will ignore settings above its own configuration,
but if your server reaches a backlog of 128 this already indicates a
delay in servicing those requests.  Increasing the backlog to 1024 is
going to substantially increase that delay, no?
