Title: Gaurd against infinite memory leak in dgram

There is a unbounded array in the dgram library. We've seen this array have over 250 thousands items in production heap dumps.

We put about a huge amount of traffic through our statsd UDP socket. When we get DNS failures this unbounded queue buffers
all statsd data which causes a huge memory leak.
