Queueing is relatively cheap.  However, it's really a hack designed to
make a server cope a little better with temporary overload.  If you find
that MIMEDefang is queueing requests most of the time, then increasing
the queue size won't help.  Your server is overloaded and making the
queue bigger won't increase throughput.
