MQ can easily handle a million 1K messages. Whether you have the resources (queue space, log space, network bandwidth, etc.) is another question that will take a little elbow grease on your part. You also need to factor in how much time you have to send/process the messages, service time requirements per message, lifetime of the messages, scope of UOW's, competing workload, etc. You are wise to be concerned, but that is business-as-usual; I see nothing to be alarmed about.
