If they exist, they'll be in the sendmail.mc file also. The confDELAY_LA=loadaverage will slow down the incoming smtp connections based upon the load average, and the confREFUSE_LA=loadaverage will refuse connections if the load average exceeds whatever you set it as. It really sounds as if you're disk I/O bound though, unless you're passing everything through dnsbl's or spamassassin, which can cause timeouts or processing delays.

This could be caused by a single message blocking the processing of the rest. You can get around this by adding confQueueSortOrder=random to your sendmail.mc and rebuilding your sendmail.cf from it. As always, don't forget to -hup sendmail after making any changes.
