Yep, I found the problem right after sending the message to the list.
control/* are owned by root:root w/ 644 permissions. When I originally
created the file as root, because of umask, permissions were 640
all is working fine now w/ concurrencyremote at 30. When I make it 40,
I get messages in my maillog that say:

Oct 11 11:24:18 server qmail: 971277858.753401 delivery 1078: deferral:
qmail-spawn_unable_to_create_pipe._(#4.3.0)

Is this becuase the server is running out of memory?

Could be a matter of permissions.  What are the permissions of your control
directory and the control files now?  On my machine, the control directory
is owned by root:qmail with 755 permissions, and all the files within are
owned by root:root with 644 permissions.
