I looked at that issue url you gave and wow, had a lot of great info.
Any chance one could get a copy of the configuration xml file you created that solved the issue for you. Just to get some ideas. I had upped the memory limits via the etc security limit file and that at least seemed to increase the load and slow the system down. Have not tried it again after that. As far as upping the queue sizes, is there a limit? Are there best practices anywhere?
