packet loss

In the course of my testing of Snort I have averaged about 40% packet loss. I am running Snort on Fedora. The segment I 
am monitoring is 100 mb and is very busy. Does anyone have any recommendations for tuning Snort to not drop so many 
packets? Is there any recommendations for hardware? The CPU is running at about 40% and the memory looks fine.
