You should really send these to the support list; that's what it's for.

You can change the physical security level setting independently of
the network seclevels -- see configuration -> security levels.

I'm not sure what else to suggest at this point.  You could try
increasing the amount of ram for temp buckets (configuration -> core
settings), but that's mostly a stab in the dark.

I suspect you need to reduce the amount of stuff in your queue.
