The server starts to drop messages when the bandwidth is full.
The are two possible cases:
- you're sending too much data too quickly
- you don't have enough bandwidth to keep up with the traffic
Can you monitor the bandwidth and see how much data you're transferring?

there's no need to take such drastic measures
The drops can be easily solved by checking the bandwidth usage or optimizing your code.
What type of application/game did you develop? A turn based game? A realtime one? If it's realtime what's the rate at which you're sending data? And what type of data?
About the bandwidth, how much of it your hosting plan provides?
