Give it the resources it needs. Probably I/O bandwidth on the queue
disk, but could also be CPU, memory, or network bandwidth. Since qmail
isn't able to reach the concurrency limit you've set, the problem is
not pushing qmail, but giving it what it needs.

Stop qmail, delete queue files, restart qmail. There are tools on
www.qmail.org to make this easier.
