I'm marking this as fixed. While we have some work to do on keeping disk
usage down on the retracers
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker/ReducingRetracerDiskUsage),
they're fast enough to process through large queues.

Title:
  Retracing is way too slow

Status in Ubuntu error tracker backend (daisy):
  Fix Released
Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  We're currently only able to process about three core files per minute
  with each retracer. We can fire up more retracers and drop some core
  files at random when we're approaching a high load, both of which
  mitigate this problem to varying degrees. However, we should also
  address the problem that our current retracing code is taking far too
  long to process each core file:

  [4:40pm] jjo: ev: basically afaics we are losing the producer|consumer rate 
battle
  [4:40pm] mthaddon: ev: basically the rabbitmq queues are fairly consistently 
increasing in size, but the server itself is very lightly loaded - should we be 
firing up more retracers, or is there some way of making existing retracers do 
more work?
  [4:40pm] jjo: ev: while finfolk doesnt get squeezed for load
  [4:41pm] ev: the retracers process in serial, so bringing up more of them 
would be advisable
  [4:41pm] jjo: ev: FTR I had fired up to ~7 retracers in parallel , which 
hover'd loadavg~=8 -> got ~3 oopsen per min
  [4:41pm] jjo: ev: but still I couldn't manage to get more than ~3/min
