You need to define a higher load average using confCONNECTION_RATE_THROTTLE in your sendmail.mc. Start at 25 and increment it as necessary after retesting. Also check for confDELAY_LA and confREFUSE_LA and post those if they exist.

What do the logs show?
| I have changed the queclearing time in the sendmail | script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail and set to 15 | mints. Then also i am seeing the queue clearing is | taking time.
Shouldn't matter. That's for processing outbound messages. You're receiving them from the qmail server, not rewriting or forwarding them so your local queue process time won't make a difference.

See above.
| qmail i am watching it is delivering very fast but due | this sendmail behavior i am unable to test...

Probably.
