Thanks Mark and Ian for your suggestion,
I want ask again,
1. Is queue runners like Incomingqueue runner so I have to make more
Incomingqueue runner?
yes
2. How can I made more queue runners?
For example, put this in Mailman/mm_cfg.py :
QRUNNERS = [
('ArchRunner', 4), # messages for the archiver
('BounceRunner', 4), # for processing the qfile/bounces directory
('CommandRunner', 4), # commands and bounces from the outside world
('IncomingRunner', 4), # posts from the outside world
('NewsRunner', 4), # outgoing messages to the nntpd
('OutgoingRunner', 4), # outgoing messages to the smtpd
('VirginRunner', 4), # internally crafted (virgin birth) messages
('RetryRunner', 4), # retry temporarily failed deliveries
]
the number must be a power of 2, so if you want to go higher, try 8 or 16.
Perhaps it's only required for OutgoingRunner and RetryRunner.
The performance improvement that I saw after doing this was so huge that I
can't believe it isn't standard. Essentially it means that one big delivery
job doesn't block the rest of the lists.
3. Can I make more queue pipe so incoming email is deliver to pipe
depend on their size and domain destination?
I don't know. It would depend on your MTA, and you haven't said what that
is. If it isn't Exim, I can't help.
4 If I bombard my mailing list server using email stress test can I
make a lot of waiting process in queue?
Probably not without queueing lots of mail to third party domains. You'd
want to be very careful not to spam people.
Thanks

I had research about how fast MTA (postfix) can deliver a lot of email
from mailman.
The one that I want to change is queue process method from FIFO to
size based(sum of domain in the list x size of email),
I have a list that contain the sum of domain each mailing list.
I want Mailman prefer sending email that have less domain destination
and small size of email.
Can you tell me what file I have to edit so mailman can decide what
email is thrown to postfix first?
You would need to modify the Switchboard.files() method in module
Mailman/Queue/Switchboard.py.
Think hard before you move away from FIFO queue processing. If your out
queue is not backlogged, it will essentially be processed FIFO in any
case because each time you look there will only be one or two entries
to process. If it is backlogged and you process in any but FIFO order,
you run the risk of leaving non-preferred entries unprocessed for very
long times.
Also, your specific strategy would penalize larger (perhaps more
popular) lists by delaying posts to those lists in favor of those to
smaller (perhaps obscure) lists. Is this really what you want to do?
A better solution might be to configure Mailman to use more queue
runners. We saw a massive performance increase when we did that,
because a single large delivery would not hold up other quicker
deliveries.
