We have encountered crashes on 2.4 + ipvs-0.2 when using SMP kernels 
(including the latest versions) when we started to load-balance high-traffic
servers (3 real servers each with ~380 active connections, total traffic of
about 24Mbps). It crashed systematically after about 4 hours of
working. However, it works fine with UP kernel for one week. The conenction
table bits was (and still is) set to 18 (256K simultaneous connections).

Any hint for why this happened would be helpful (we have 800 Mhz of
processing power unused :)

In the meantime, we are kamikaze enough to use development versions in
production (after preliminary testing :)
