Queue runners will often collide when run much under 45 seconds. Ordinarily 
harmless, save for more log lines than useful.

-q15s is rather more aggressive yet, so you should already be seeing collisions 
in the logs.

I'd suggest changing in the 'main' section of ~/configure to:

log_selector = +all

===

... then multitail / wtail the exim main and panic logs,

plus /var/log/all.log /var/log/messages

(watching for abnormal termination of exim offspring).

There may *already* be clues in those other logs if not in Exim's, so once you 
have a pattern you can grep out the history and timing.
