You most likely don't want to put -L on 1 but on a much higher number.
This is the number of retries c-relay does before dropping the metric.
Anyway, first check the statistics if it really is dropping the metrics,
see:

carbon.relays.<<hostname_of_c_relay>>.metricsDropped

Same stats split out by destination:

carbon.relays.<<hostname_of_c_relay>>.destinations.<<name_of_destinationo>>.dropped

If metrics are being dropped you can 
1) increase queue size (-q)
2) increase number of stalls (-L)
