Exactly four hours after I increased the MAC aging time to 14400, the
flooding stops. Before it was nearly 20kpps: 

core2#sh int g4/46 | i rate
 Queueing strategy: fifo
 30 second input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec
 30 second output rate 70000 bits/sec, 84 packets/sec

Still confused why it took that long to start properly learning.
